      Hi all,

      I have a Linux server in the LAN side,
      a client connecting via OpenVPN to pfsense.
      If the client then ssh into the Linux Server its who is IP adress is not the vpn address he got.
      The server sees the LAN IP of the pfsense.

      Is it possible to transmit the client vpn ip instead?

      Kind Regards
      Felix

        TAP ?
        TUN ?
        Tunnel network ?

        When I logging over VPN into pfSense, I see my'OpenVPN tunnel IP' :

        [2.5.1-RELEASE][admin@pfsense.my-network.net]/root:
Message from syslogd ...

        Same thing when I log in into a NAS, present in one of my LAN : I see the IP of my device I use to login, the device that connects to OpenVPN.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          I have a L2tp/IPSec and an OpenVPN running.
          On both i have the following behavior:
          When im connected to VPN and i ssh into a random Ubuntu server in a vlan at the lan side of pfsense (the remote location),
          Ubuntu shows connected from 192.168.1.251 (which is the ip of the pfsense)

          The VPN Client Tunnel Network is 192.168.6.0/24 -> Client gets 192.168.6.2 for example but on login at the Ubuntu server it shows the pfsens IP 192.168.1.251

            Is there a gateway set in the interface settings of the concerened VLAN?
            If so, for what reason?

            Any outbound rules added manually?

                So the destination VLAN is behind the main switch connectd to LAN and you route the traffic to the switch.
                So LAN is the concerned interface here. So check the LAN interface settings. Is there a gateway set?
                That should not be the case.

                Otherwise post your outbound NAT settings.

                  do you mean the Upstream gateway should be "none" on Lan Side?
