VPN connection but no Ping from iOS device

[jochenthomas]

Hi,
While using the first VPN with TAP succesfully I am now forced to use an Apple Tablet together with openVPN client.
With the configuration below I cannot reach or ping the internal IP's.
But can ping the router IP itself: 192.168.x.1 and the VPN server: 10.16.0.1 as well!!
So I am confused; what I have to do now?

A traeroute form the Apple device stops after the first hop:
traceroute: 192.168.x.x., 5 relative hops max, 52 byte packets
1 10.15.0.1 97.056 ms 166.992 ms 170.447 ms
2 * * * *

The system log you can find as well below.
Also a port scan is not possible..

Which other information I have to provide
What should I check now?

Solved: was not an issue with openVPN itself but with the ITab.
You need to restart any app if you use an new ovpn-config file ;-)
O.k. , my foolishness ;-) At least I got it!
