Server :: OpenVPN: Can't Change Default "route"

Apr 18, 2011

I have OpenVPN working well, but I can't figure out how to change the default route. By default, a "route" shows me: 192.168.0.100 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tun0 But I want it to read: 192.168.0.0 192.168.0.100 255.255.255.0 UG 0 0 0 tun0 ... so I can access other computers on the network. I can accomplish this manually by running: ip route add 192.168.0.0/24 via 192.168.0.100 dev tun0 proto static How can I get this to be the default route? I've tried adding push "route 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0" to my /etc/openvpn/openvpn.conf on the VPN server but that has not helped.

Server :: OpenVPN Range Address / When Change Static IP To Dynamic IP In Config File OpenVPN Didn't Work?

Feb 13, 2010

I want to configure a VPN over the Internet.I installed the 'openvpn' package, generated the key file, transfered it by a secure way to the client, and setted up the configuration file.

So, in that configuration file I input the IP addresses of the tunneled interfaces. Both IPs are static in the tunnel.

Then, I've heard somewhere that I can assign a dynamic configuration IP for the client. I do this registering a range.

Well, when I tried to change static IP to dynamic IP (changing '192.168.0.2' to '192.168.0.0/24') in the configuration file, the OpenVPN didn't work.

Obviously I don't know what I'm doing, and I really, don't believe that simply changing the IP will make it work, but I tried.

I hope I explained my problem as well.

My configuration file:

# OpenVPN Server Configuration File
dev tun 0
ifconfig 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2
cd /etc/openvpn
secret key_file

In client I execute the 'openvpn' without the '--daemon' parameter.Then I want that my client uses a IP in a range (192.168.0.0/24, for example), instead of a static IP (192.168.0.2).I also thought to use a DHCP server, but I'm not sure that will work.

Networking :: Set A Route For Eth1 - DHCP Clients - To Reach Tun0 - Openvpn Server - CentOS

Sep 21, 2010

I have openvpn tunnel setup between two CentOS servers. One of the CentOS servers also acts as a DHCP server for some client computers.

Server A= OpenVPN server
Server B= OpenVPN client (connects to Server A with OpenVPN)

The two CentOS servers can ping each other (172.16.0.0/24) via the tun0.

However, client computer connected to Server B (DHCP server) can't reach 172.16.0.1 (which is the OpenVPN server).

I think I am missing some routing in my "ip route show". Following is the full picture:

What command can I issue to get this fixed? something along ip route add?

There is no firewall service on both end. service iptables stop! I can't bridge eth1 and tun0 as DHCP server might mess up the other side. I can't do a push of "redirect-gateway def1" because then clients loose their IP as they send DHCP requests to Server A.

Software :: OpenVPN Address Pool - Know To Route

Aug 3, 2010

I have a question regarding OpenVPN. I have configured my own vpn server. It is in a private network 192.168.0.0. The ip addresses I am using for the vpn connection are in the 10.9.1.0 network but I want to connect my ovpn clinets to the 192.168.0.0 network. I read the manuals and I think the "push route" command will work for me, but I cannot understand fully the description of the command "push route".

# Push routes to the client to allow it to reach other private subnets behind the server.
# Remember that these private subnets will also need to know to route the OpenVPN client
# Address pool (10.8.0.0/255.255.255.0) back to the OpenVPN server.
;push "route 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0"
;push "route 192.168.20.0 255.255.255.0"

So the questions:
1. These private subnets behind the server are routed from my vpn server or from another router
2. How these private subnets "know to route" the open vpn address pool, is this a configuration of the router for this networks (192.168.0.0)or ?

Red Hat / Fedora :: How To Add Default Route

Feb 1, 2010

I'm trying to move away from using /etc/rc.local for adding routes I've added

IPADDRESS0=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
NETMASK0=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
GATEWAY0=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

to /etc/sysconfig/network/network-scripts/route-eth0 after doing 'service network restart' I'm do see the new route as described by directive above. However, I still do not see the default gateway that's supposed to be on my box. Where/how do I define the default gateway using the route-ethX method above?

OpenSUSE Network :: Verizon 3G - No Default Route Being Set?

Dec 5, 2009

I've been seeing a bunch of issues with the /etc/resolv.conf not picking up the nameservers for 3g connections, and managed to fix that issue using tips found here.. the one thing I m having a problwm with is my 3G USB modem not picking up a default route/gateway. I can connect using KNetworkManager, get an IP and nameservers, but.

And to top it all off, I cannot figure out what the default gateway should be from verizon to just write a script out myself that'll do it automatically.

How do I prevent eth1 from being able to overwrite the default gateway that eth0 has already set?!? I read that one can create route-* files in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ directory to setup static default routes.But those seems to require one to know the IP address of the gateway, but in my case the ISP's gateway is served via DHCP and so it could vary from day to day. Here are the contents of some of the relevant files:

OpenSUSE Network :: How To Avoid Typing Route Add Default GW

Jan 14, 2010

I have a static ip on my wired (eth0) connection. I thought I had it well set up in yast. In the routing section I do have my default gw coming up there, with the the right nw i/f (eth0) associate with it. However, when I boot up, y config seems to ignore that fact, and I have to keep goign to root and typing "route add default gw <mygwip>" each time, which is something I want to avoid. Isn't it odd that the route settings created by yast have no effect? If they did, the route would be set up on bootup and I would haven't to do that typing.

OpenSUSE Network :: NetworkManager Deletes Default Route

When I now add the route manually it works. But as soon as the cable is plugged in, the NetworkManager overwrites the routing table entry again (which makes it quite annoying). Does anyone know a way to avoid this behaviour?

Ubuntu Networking :: Default Route Stops Working?

Mar 22, 2011

I'm currently working with Ubuntu 10.10.I wanted to add a default route to a gateway named ppp0.I did it with the command> route add default ppp0It works ok. But then from time to time it suddenly stops and I have to go back again to the server and retype the command. I'm clueless as to why is it happening. I can assure no one is working at the server or doing anything over there.Does anyone know causes that might be triggering route default to stop working?Btw where is the best place to add this command so it will be executed automatically on start-up and without needing to login to the server?

Networking :: Host A Service On Eth0 While Default Route Is A VPN?

Aug 21, 2010

I am attempting to run apache on my linux router while connected to a VPN. My default route is set to the VPN endpoint and I cannot control port forwarding at that end. I cannot seem to connect to any service that i bind to the eth0 interface. I believe that my iptables rules and OpenVPN are the source of the problem.

/sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o tun1 -j MASQUERADE
/sbin/iptables -A FORWARD -i tun1 -o eth1 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o tun1 -j ACCEPT

Networking :: Iproute2 Load Balancing Without Default Route?

Jan 12, 2011

I'm trying to set up load balancing using iproute2 following this guide. I've got 4 dsl links as follows:

eth1 - 100.100.100.1
eth2 - 100.100.100.2
eth3 - 100.100.100.3
eth0 - 111.111.111.111 (main uncapped line)

eth0 is the default route, and eth3 is being used for something else. So what I want to do is load balance browsing between eth1 and eth2. I've added all of the routes in the LARTC guide, but the command to enable the load balancing:

Quote:

ip route add default scope global nexthop via $P1 dev $IF1 weight 1 nexthop via $P2 dev $IF2 weight 1 obviously involves creating a new default route. Since I'll be using Squid to push the traffic through the relevant line, how can I set up a load-balanced link for eth1 and eth2 without changing the existing default route on the server?

Fedora Networking :: Two Network Interfaces - Setup Default Gw Route?

Mar 26, 2009

So I have two network Interfaces

eth0 - NAT behind a router
eth1 - Public IP

When ever I restart the machine, both interfaces pull a IP, but the it randomly chooses eth0 or eth1 to have the gateway. I want the gateway to be eth0 always.

[Code]...

Is there some file or setting I can modify in Fedora10 that will always choose 192.168.1.1 on eth0 as the default gateway?

Ubuntu Networking :: Nothing Appears In Logfile That Even Mentions Default Route

Feb 28, 2010

In an attempt to get something that, well, you know, just works... I migrated a laptop to Karmic server today. Which works fine, except for one thing: when I use wvdial and a Huawei E160g USB modem to connect to the Internet (which is the only option out here in the sticks where I live) no default gateway is set. When I add one manually everything is fine, except that the default gateway keeps disappearing after a while (at irregular intervals, as far as I can see). Nothing appears in any logfile that even mentions the default route, let alone a reason for its magical vanishing trick. My wvdial.conf is fairly pedestrian:

[Code]...

What's going on here? I'm stumped. And the mighty Googlebrain doesn't seem to know, either. How do I get wvdial & friends to set the correct default route upon connecting? Given the fact that without a default route a PPP connection to a remote network is little use, I would expect this to be a standard feature and not something that I'd have to script a work-around for myself. But then, I have been wrong before. Secondly, and more importantly, why does my default route keep disappearing without a trace?

Ubuntu Servers :: HOW TO Be In Two Places At Once A.k.a Ipredator Independent Of The Default Route

May 4, 2010

I have a home server running Lucid which basically runs our home lan, but I also wanted to be able to run transmission-daemon over an ipredator VPN connection completely independently of the ethernet port (as far as the application layer is concerned anyway). Most of the howtos for setting up VPN use the VPN as the default route, however I still wanted to run a webserver, dnsmasq etc, not to mention free bandwidth access to my ISP etc.

Thus, this howto. The ppp connection still tunnels through eth0, but as far everthing else is concerned my server has two independent network ports eth0 and ppp0 and applications use the default route via eth0 to our router unless explicitely directed down pppX. I assume that you already have transmission-daemon installed.

Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Navigate .conf And Default Route Are Correct?

May 24, 2010

I ask your help to diagnose a problem. For business reasons I use a broadband internet connection via a mobile phone's connected via bluetooth [rfcomm]. Speed is not the maximum but it is more than sufficient for my work. For configuration of ppp I followed this guide Pon pulls up dialup, but I can't navigate also if resolv.conf and default route are correct. In addition I would like to use the NetworkManager that by default, does not see the device. I worked around the problem this way:

I modified the / etc / rc.local so that launch at boot time: # Rfcomm bind yes

After starting Lucid Lynx, bluetooth connects to the phone but NetworkManager does not see the modem.
When I run the connection manually, by: # Pon BluetoothDialup

NetworkManager sees the device, but can not use it because obviously it is locked by the ppp daemon.
So I close the connection with: # poff

Now NetworkManager sees the broadband modem via / dev/rfcomm0, dialup is performed properly. I can finally surf and just enable vpn with NetworkManager. all start automatically at boot, without the need to manually connect and disconnects the dialup to use, finally, the NetworkManager.

But from DHCP-offer on eth0 i want to use

* "offered IP-Adress for eth0"
* "offered NTP-Server"
* "offered Host-Name"

From DHCP-offer on the eth1 i want to use

* "offered IP-Adress for eth1"

OpenSUSE Wireless :: NetworkManager Doesn't Configure Default Route And Nameserve

Nov 15, 2009

yesterday I installed openSUSE 11.2 on my laptop. But I'm having problem getting the wifi configured properly. During the installation I got the message "No network running" (which I also saw after the installation when using the network configuration module of YaST after switching from ifup to NetworkManager). After installation NetworkManager seemed to work fine, it detected my wifi card, found the network, and I could even connect to it. Then the problems began, no Internet connection. The first thing I tried was pinging Google which yielded an "unknown host" message. So I checked /etc/resolv.conf, to look for the DNS servers, which where missing.

I added them manually and tried again. Still no luck, so I started pinging my router, which worked, tried again pinging Google using one of there IP addresses, which failed. So I ran route to find out which routes where being used, this one gave an unexpected result, because it only showed the route to the local network (I'm not sure about the loopback one, because this was also a lot of times missing when testing):

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Manager Replaces Default Route When Eth Cable Plugged

May 5, 2010

I have been encountering this problem, not only on 10.4, but on older versions too: I use a wifi router to connect my laptop to the Internet, but sometimes I need to connect directly to another computer to move some files over GLAN. But Ubuntu's Network manager doesn't allow me to configure the eth0 interface without specifying a gateway (no gateway = grey submit button), but when a gateway is specified, it always rewrites the default gw specified already by the active wifi connection and returns back after unplugging the eth cable.

Of course this can be solved by a few route commands, but this is unacceptable since it is needed to establish the cable connection without any further assistance from within and as well without replacing the default gw and thus breaking the Internet connection. Is there, please, any possibility how to prevent Network Manager from replacing these routes?

Networking :: Normal Default Gateway Reappears With OpenVPN Redirect

Apr 22, 2009

I'm using OpenWRT on a WRT54GS. I'm using wifidog in combination with openvpn. For those of you familiar with wifidog, my auth server is located at the other end of an openvpn tunnel and the "wifi dog gateway" is running on the WRT itself. I'm don't really think that wifi dog is the issue. Basically, I'm using openvpn with the "redirect-gateway" option which works well. In this mode, openvpn removes my current default gateway setting and adds the remote openvpn server as the default gateway (as it should). However, overnight, my default gateway on the local network keeps reapperaing (along with the openvpn one as well).

This causes confusion and I don't want any packets (But ovbiously the connection to the actual openvpn server) to go down this local gateway. Why do you think it reappears? Do you reckon openvpn is dropping connection and somehow the normal gateway is being added back? I *could* run a cron script which runs every minute or so with something like "route del default gw xx.xx.xx.xx" (where xx.xx.xx.xx is the default gateway which I don't want to be there) but that is quite messy and means that if I were to ever move the router I would need to reconfigure this and considering that I would like in the future to have many of these wifi dog gateways, this really isn't an ideal option (as every network will have a different default gateway).
