OpenVPN Support Forum

Hello Everyone,
I am new here but I am sure that I will get support on my use case.
I have seen people reporting this issue but my case is slightly different

use case:
I have setup an openvpn in GCP from marketplace, done setup and started using it.
I am able to reach internal load balancers while I am on VPN which is expected.

in my OpenVPn I have set `Should client Internet traffic be routed through the VPN?` as NO because if it is yes then my internet stop working.

Now problem is that I have a bastion host which I have been using as a tunnel to connect with DB in private network earlier. I whitelist IP in firewall of bastion to connect with the DB, I whitelist the IP of openvpn in firewall so that I can ssh only while I am on VPN but it is not working and requests get timeout. in same way when I try to connect with DB while I am on VPN from cli it also time out .

I am expecting that I should be able to ssh in bastion and I should be able login to DB while I am on vpn.

if any logs are required please let me know I can share the related logs here .

Hi mir,

This seems to be OpenVPN Access Server, so I moved this post to the appropriate subforum.

Best way to get support is with the link in my signature, below. Even a free-tier (2 connections) AS user can open a Support ticket.

If you're changing the firewall on your AS host, that is strongly not recommended. AS needs to manage its own firewall.

Also sounds like there could be routing vs. NAT issues here. By default AS uses NAT to connect to VPN destinations, but you might want to configure routing on yours.

HTH, regards, rob0
