    Configure OVPN for both All traffic and LAN only?

    I've forgotten about this thread for a while, but thank you elorimer. That was my decision, too. The sheer number of pages on the Internet recommending against TAP in favour of TUN makes me think that this is a rare configuration. I've set up a second server as a TUN, and will also test to see...

    Configure OVPN for both All traffic and LAN only?

    I am using TAP, primarily to join two networks together (mine and my parents') for CIFS. This is primarily why I need to set LAN traffic only through VPN. However, I also want to be able to connect to the Internet from untrusted networks, so I want a configuration to route all traffic through...

    Configure OVPN for both All traffic and LAN only?

    I have one server, configured with "Client will use VPN to access: Both" You mention having two separate client configurations, which I have. I'm using the same configuration file in both instances, except adding pull-filter ignore "route-gateway " pull-filter ignore "redirect-gateway " to...

    Would anyone be able to help me with the above?

    Configure OVPN for both All traffic and LAN only?

    I guess I'm confused. The VPN server configuration for OpenVPN lets me specify whether clients connect to the LAN only, Internet only, or both. Is that just adding configuration options to the client config template? I see that changing my server configuration from LAN only to Both adds these...

    Configure OVPN for both All traffic and LAN only?

    I'm trying to get my OpenVPN server to accept VPN connections where the client gets to decide whether to route all traffic through the VPN or just traffic for the LAN. I've had the server running well using just LAN traffic, but I'm not experienced enough to configure it correctly for what I...

    RT-AC88U's Domain Name

    Damn, well I just learned something.. Thanks for your replies, rmerlin. Could you maybe edit the help text for that feature to add a period to the list of allowed characters?

    RT-AC88U's Domain Name

    I'm sorry, what? This is news to me. For what reason is it a bad idea?

    RT-AC88U's Domain Name

    Thanks for replying. I have a .org domain name, which I've used as my LANs domain for a few years now. It has been working until I updated to the latest merlin firmware. I changed it to 'lan' and now I get the proper IP address answer from dig. I change it back to my domain name and dig gives no...

    RT-AC88U's Domain Name

    Please see attached image. Is a period not allowed? My router's DNS server (which uses 1.1.1.1 as upstream) wasn't returning a result for my network's domain name until I changed it to 'lan'. It was working until I updated to firmware v.384.9.
