      no traffic inside VPN.S OpenVPN tunnel whereas flux should be OK (no change in menu Firewall / Rules / LAN )

      I think I missed something in my VPN.S client configuration (menu services / VPN / openvpn / client) ; I look for what, so my question ...

        Not helping to be honest, its more like you just had a stroke or something.. "whereas flux should be OK " ???

        I think I missed something in my VPN.S client configuration

        How would you have missed something.. If all you did was upgrade there wouldn't be any changes, etc..

          I try to check each param

          client
          proto udp => field protocol
          dev tun => field device mode
          ca ca.crt => field ...
          dh dh2048.pem => field ...
          cert m_nge.crt => field ...
          key m_nge.key => field client certificate
          remote 151.80.148.150 1281 => fields server host + server port
          cipher AES-128-CBC => field data encryption algorithms
          verb 2 => field ...
          mute 20 => field ...
          keepalive 3 10 => field ...
          comp-lzo => field ...
          persist-key => field ...
          persist-tun => field ...
          float => field ...
          resolv-retry infinite => field ...
          nobind => field ...
          auth-nocache => field ...
          remote-cert-tls server => field ...

          a screenshot or precisions would be appreciate to be sure ...

          Regards

            You said you connected, none of those settings would have anything to do with "routing" or not routing.. If you wan some clients to use your vpn connection, that would be setup via a policy route in your firewall rules.

            If you want all of your traffic to go out this vpn that could also be set in your gateways and what is set as default..

              Perhaps, but not sure ... I really appreciate to have a verif for each field ... only because I didn't change anything in my firewall rules ...
              However, I never said I want some client to use my vpn connection
              If you really want to help me, please check with me each field in the conf ...

              If you want all of your traffic to go out this vpn that could also be set in your gateways and what is set as default..

              That's no either the subject ... but thx !

                Why would I waste such time.. Again none of those have anything to do with routing.. Just a quick glance your not actually showing the config anyway.. Here is a client config from pfsense for openvpn

                Not sure what you posted - but clearly its not complete, nor a screenshot even from your gui setup of your client, etc.

                So how do I know if you even put in what you posted, etc.

                  I didn't catch your point, but thx anyway for your efforts

                      which has nothing to do with "routing" which was your question.. Glad you got it sorted!

                        you're right ; however, if your compression param is not OK, there's no traffic in the OpenVPN tunnel ... and no byte sent / received in Status / openVPN menu ...
                        Symptoms are the same as routing issue ... which was my interrogation ...

                        Have a nice end of day !
