VPN leaks on a headless device?

[sirmclouis]

Hey!

I've setup a VPN client on my Asuswrt-Merlin device and instead of route all the traffic trough it, I'm just routing a guess network and a headless device I have at home.

My question is. How do I check for leaks on the headless device? I've already checked the guess wi-fi network with http://www.doileak.com but I really don't know how to check the headless device.

Anyone know how can I really be sure that all my traffic on that device is going through the VPN?

Thanks!

Install 'tcpdump' utility from Entware.

You should then monitor the WAN and or VPN Client interface for traffic from the headless device etc.

That sounds even more interesting. Thanks a lot for the insight.
