Hi,

I have setup a Roadwarrior IPsec as per the guide: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/ipsec-road.html
I can connect to the server from my android mobile, and then I can access my local server but not anything on the internet.

I cannot see anything blocked in the firewall log file - do you have any idea what could cause this ?

Please let me know if you need more information.

Thanks
Rasmus

Hi Rasmus,

I noticed similar behavour recently when using the "DNS Forwarder". Could it be that simply DNS is not working for you when connecting via VPN?

Enabling "Strict Interface Binding" including localhost for the "DNS Forwarder" worked for me:


  • Go to: Services -> "DNS Forwarder"
  • At "Interfaces" select: localhost + (e.g.) LAN + OPTIONAL_OTHER_INTERFACES
  • Try to reconnect your VPN client

Hope that works for you.

Best
Max

I tried once again and noticed that I can connect, however it seems the firewall blocks all eventhough rules should allow IP-SEC Interface to allow all kinds of traffic but I get below in firewall log..
