OpenVPN Gateway replaces default gateway when it comes up
-
Hey guys. I looked for this specific problem and found nothing on it. Its possible my google-fu is weak recently so forgive me if it was posted before.
So I got an OpenVPN provider to give me an american IP for netflix. Making it a gateway on OPT1 works great so all is well ,except that (following the setup instructions for StrongVPN) all my traffic wants to go through my gateway. I actually had to make a rule that all traffic that != a list of IPs would go out the normal WAN gateway. I tried to set a priority to the gateways, but you can only do that with a GW group as far as I can see. Can anyone give me some insight or things to look at? Don't worry about dumbing it down.
EDIT: I forgot to mention the checkbox for default gateway is set on my WAN gateway and confirmed NOT checked on my OPT1 interface GW

That's because StrongVPN is pushing you a default route. You can override that.

http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,36155.msg186479.html#msg186479Thanks for the reply! I tried the route-nopull added to the optional for my tunnel, but it didn't make a difference. I still need to make a statement in the lan rules to force anything that isn't meant for netflix goes to the WAN gw. Any other ideas?

That should do it (though can't say I've tried it, don't have a StrongVPN account, but that option works in general). What do your OpenVPN logs look like when you connect?
