(solved) OpenVPN Client connects sucessfully but has no access to local LAN

[lorus]

Hi together,

I have a double pfsense setup, as perimeter-checkpoint configuration, here.

Perimeter:
WAN: public address space
LAN: 10.10.10.11/24

Checkpoint:
WAN: 10.10.10.21/24
LAN: 192.168.5.2/24

From the perimeter box I'm redirecting the ovpn port 1194 to the checkpoint box.

I configured the OpenVPN service through the wizzard on the checkpoint box as follows:

so the firewall rule for ovpn is also present

Connecting from WinXP client via OpenVPN GUI seems fine:

10.0.8.5 -> not pingable

192.168.5.2 -> pingable
any different PC from 192.168.5.0/24 -> not pingable

Can anyone pointing me out, what I'm doing wrong?

Thx in Advance,

Does these pc's allow icmp echo-reply situation from different network?

[lorus]

Yeah, I figured out that the local pc recieved the echo-requests, but wasn't able to reply it, cause his default gateway doesn't know a route to the vpn tunnel network. (currently replacing our router infrastructure with pfsense step-by-step)

So adding a static route with 192.168.5.2 as gateway to the local pc is my temp solution until I have all configured and tested with pfsense and so can finally replace the old routers with it.

Thx for pushing me in the right direction :)

cheerz,
