    Port Forwarding when Connected to VPN

    I finally got this working just as I wanted. Unfortunately the script I posted above didn't quite work as intended, as ALL packets (including those coming in from the Internet) were marked and thus I lost access to Internet servers on port 443. Oops. Here is my final configuration, which I...

    Port Forwarding when Connected to VPN

    I got it working! I didn't use SNAT in the end. Instead, packets coming into the router from a source port of 443 (which will only ever be return traffic) are marked with '10'. The marked packets are then diverted to use the main routing table, rather than the ovpnc1 table. iptables -t mangle...

    Issue with vpn client 'Accept DNS Configuration' parameter

    RMerlin - I'm not sure this is related (and it's a minor issue)... For whatever reason, likely related to the issues raised in this thread, I get DNS leaks when I set 'Strict' mode. Setting 'Exclusive' fixes this, but has one minor side effect. The hostname of my router is 'rtr' and the domain...

    Port Forwarding when Connected to VPN

    The problem with that suggestion is that any traffic generated by the web server will go out through the WAN, and not the VPN. That isn't what I want. Responses to clients should go out via the WAN but traffic originating from the server should go through the VPN.

    Port Forwarding when Connected to VPN

    Hi Colin, I've already done a bit of that. My PBR is that the router itself goes straight out. Anything on the LAN subnet gets routed down the tunnel. The problem is that the return traffic from the web server will always be sourced from (in this case) 10.0.0.20. It will always be destined to...

    Port Forwarding when Connected to VPN

    Hello, I should start out by saying I'm a network engineer. I should be able to work this out myself but to my discredit, I'm struggling a bit... My 86U is permanently connected to a VPN service. In addition, I've set up a port-forward to a local web server on my LAN. When the VPN is...

    B2 Backup from Router

    Hello, I’ve just received my 86U and have connected a hard drive to it, which is primarily going to be my on-site backup drive accessed via SMB. I would like the safety net of an off site backup and plan to back up the hard drive using a client on my hard drive. Clearly this isn’t ideal as it...
