HA and OpenVPN access the two routers
-
Hi All,
I have configured two Netgate 7100 in a HA configuration. On an internal LAN 192.168.10.0/24 they have these IP assignements
- 192.168.10.1 Virtual shared IP
- 192.168.10.2 router #1 - primary
- 192.168.10.3 router #2 - secondary
From an external client connected via OpenVPN I can connect to the web admin interface at the address 192.168.10.1 which results in a login in router #1 (primary) and to the address 192.168.10.2 which correctly results in a log in to the router 1 again. All this expected and OK. I cannot log in to the web admin interface at 192.168.10.3, which is the router #2. From clients in the LAN, I can instead log in into the web interface at 192.168.10.3.
Can anyone explain this difference?
Thanks for any advise,
Best Regards,
Andrea
