OpenVPN DNS DHCP options not pushed to clients

[marin]

Hi,

We use OPNsense 19.1.5 on 3 different sites as OpenVPN servers for roaming clients. OpenVPN is configured to send its own IP address (first address from the OpenVPN range) as a DNS server to the clients.

This setup works correctly on one of our sites, but not on the 2 others, where the OpenVPN omits to include a DHCP DNS options in the PUSH_REPLY command:

Code Select Expand

Tue Apr 09 12:35:51 2019 PUSH: Received control message: 'PUSH_REPLY,route 10.6.0.0 255.255.0.0,route 10.6.9.1,topology net30,ping 5,ping-restart 20,ifconfig 10.6.9.6 10.6.9.5,peer-id 0,cipher AES-256-GCM'

I have already tried removing then re-adding DNS options, but still no change. The server config is identical to the one running on the first site, except regarding subnets, of course, and I don't know what to do more.

Any idea ?

Many thanks!

Marin.

Hi,

Am I the only one to experiment this issue ? Should I fill a bug report on GitHub ?

No, you are not the only person to experience this.  I have the same issue, but I am still running 18.7.x.

The forum is what it is: a forum where experiences are shared and exchanged. If you suspect a bug, I would suggest filing a bug report, as that is the place where they are actively discussed.
