openvpn client connects but cant get on LAN subnet

[robertkwild]

hi all,

i have set up an openvpn server on my opnsense firewall and i can connect to it via my client (android)

but i cant access my LAN network on my mobile even tho i have specified under ipv4 local network

i have made lan rules for my openvpn network to access this network

and when i try to access from my mobile 10.100.1.254 the web page doesnt come up (this is my opnsense web gui)

any help please would be much appreciated

many thanks,
rob

Hi Rob,

First off, do you have an allow rule on your OpenVPN interface? Firewall, Rules, OpenVPN, IPv4 * * * * *

Check your steps against this article: https://www.kirkg.us/posts/building-an-openvpn-server-with-opnsense/

If you are largely on the same page, try a packet trace on the firewall to confirm that the traffic matches your expectations.
