Title: [SOLVED] OpenVPN TAP server instance bridge problems
Post by: maverickcdn on May 24, 2025, 02:20:49 AM
Hello everyone, newbie around here and looking for advice/guidance.  I understand my setup is not well supported as it is rare, but it was working when I first made the jump to opnsense.

OpenVPN Server Instance TCP/TAP - This vpn interface is bridged to LAN interface - All rules were followed and applied for setting up a bridge interface (tuneables)
Clients are android devices using VPN Client Pro (been using it for TAP for many years) and Windows clients using OpenVPN GUI

EDIT: solved... user error (of course)
I did re-setup this server at some point and incorrectly set the Bridge Gateway to the network address 10.1.1.0/24 instead of the host address 10.1.1.1/24.

Glancing at routing I overlooked this but after experimenting with manually added routes I discovered my error
