Multiple Client VPN's need an interface for each?

[jkemp]

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to add multiple NordVPN clients. When I added six of them, I noticed my WAN gateway would become 'defunct' even with those recently added clients disabled. I could only get my connection back after removing them and leaving only one. How does one go about having multiple clients, and be able to choose the one I need to use?

Do I need to add an interface, gateway, and firewall rules for each one? If I enabled two of them, or put them in a VPN group, would that create a problem and run both at the same time?

Is there a guide somewhere on how to set up multiple VPN clients?

Any help or direction would greatly be appreciated,

James

This issue is due to the same VPN IP Pool being used in multiple countries sometimes (depending on the server you are connected to).
You can continue to enjoy simultaneous VPN connections to multiple countries till you get to the point where the VPN pool is trying to offer an IP from a pool to which you already have a connection to using another client profile.

Check the log to verify this and find a combination of servers that do not run into conflict.
That way your tunnel and it's routing remain clean and bug-free.
