OpenVPN only one-way traffic
-
Hello all,
I have been searching a lot but I can't find an answer to this.
At my home I have a router running dd-wrt and on my dedicated server I'm running a pfSense server.
I have an OpenVPN connection between the 2 and is running fine.
The strange thing is that I can reach all the servers from my home to the pfSense network, but I cannot reach my home network from the pfSense network.
What I also find a bit strange is that in the dd-wrt openvpn status it gives me twice the same IP:State
Client: CONNECTED SUCCESS
Local Address: 10.0.8.2
Remote Address: 10.0.8.2
(I configured 10.0.8.0/24 to be the VPN network)ifconfig command on the pfSense machine:
ovpns2: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
options=80000<LINKSTATE>
inet6 fe80::250:56ff:fe08:2f46%ovpns2 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x7

Opened by PID 38363ifconfig command on the dd-wrt router:

iptables -I INPUT 3 -i tun1 -p icmp -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -i br0 -o tun1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -i tun1 -o br0 -j ACCEPTOn the pfSense machine I allowed all traffic on the openvpn adapter.
What could be the issue here?
