OpenVPN / Routing / Netstat Question

[guest15389]

I was trying to make sure I understood what I was seeing.

My basic setup is a firewall and I have a TorGuard VPN setup.

I have a firewall rule that routes a specific IP through my TorGuard OpenVPN setup.

My source IP for the traffic is 192.168.1.31 and I can see majority of my traffic is hitting the VPN (I think). I see some other connections that seem to be going out directly to someone else.

I can't figure it out if that's normal or something that isn't routing through the GW I have setup.

Code: [Select]

root@plex:~# netstat -an | grep EST | grep 192.168.1.31

So those "XX" connections I think are routing not over the TorGuard VPN but directly out. I have my rule logging on and I see it is matching the right rule. I can also see tons of traffic over the VPN connection so it seems.

My use case is to VPN all my torrent traffic and such via the VPN and any other traffic I want to drop into the rule.
