21.7 Legacy Series / Re: [Solved] New H/W, OpenVPN Issues

Compared my OpenVPN server settings to the OPNsense docs, unchecked "Dynamic IP" and "Address Pool" under Client Settings and all is well.  Why it worked before or why it stopped, I can't say.  But it works now.
Thanks.

Thank you for the quick reply but the interfaces seem to be named appropriately.  I'll keep digging as time permits and post logs, etc.

21.7 Legacy Series / [Solved] New H/W, OpenVPN Issues

« on: January 07, 2022, 05:49:23 am »

I recently migrated from a Fitlet2 to a SuperMicro X11SBA-LN4F/F platform.  I backed up my old config and restored on the new install.  Everything works except LAN access via OpenVPN.  I can still connect to the firewall via OpenVPN Android client but cannot access LAN devices.  I can’t ping servers, SSH or view HTML.  When connected, I can browse the web and whatsmyip shows my home IP address.

There is no setting on the hardware side that seems relevant.  It feels like an OPNsense setting but I can’t figure out why it worked before and not now.  Any thoughts on where to start?

Thanks.

I'll second the Fitlet2 recommendation.  Also using the J3455 model, paired with Ubiquiti for WiFi.

Another option to consider is the Fitlet2.  This is what I'm using for OPNsense.  https://www.amazon.com/fitlet-fitlet2-J3455-Barebone/dp/B078V6MT9D
More money than the link in your post, to be sure.
Differences between the CPUs:

The J3455 also has the AES instruction set which I wanted for OpenVPN.  The J1800 does not.

The Fitlet2 carries a 5-year warranty and their support has been excellent.
Quiet, runs cool and has been reliable.
Sounds like a commercial but just a happy home user, hoping it helps someone else.
