OpenVPN client when enabled I loose LAN
-
So a strange thing is happening I added a OpenVPN client and it connects successfully but then I loose my internet on my LAN. I have other vlans that seem to be working fine.
There is no outbound NAT setup yet for the VPN and no firewall rules, when I disable the vpn client, everything starts to work. What can I look at to start figuring out what is going on? Any pointers would be great, I am not understanding why this is happening.

I would assume you are pulling routes, so default route goes out your vpn connection. But without any nat setup, no it wouldn't work.
If you don't want your default route going out your vpn connection, make sure where you connecting to doesn't set that option. Or set your local connection settings not to pull routes and only route traffic out the vpn you want via policy routing.
Why your other vlans might have been working is existing states, or maybe you policy route them out your normal default gateway?

@johnpoz I unchecked to pull routes under the VPN and that did the trick now I have to figure out the rest
