Question

Hello,

I tried to setup an OpenVPN for 2 days straight but by the love of god could not get it to work.

I want to configure the RUT950, which is connected to WAN (in this case a Wifi where it has a static IP 10.0.10.126), so that it enables a Bridged VPN to the computer connected on LAN and all computers in the same ip range.

The network configuration is:

WAN: 10.0.10.0 255.255.0.0
RUT950: 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0
 

Here is what I did so far:

1) Generate certificates for the server using this tutorial (Only steps 1-6): https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-an-openvpn-server-on-ubuntu-16-04#step-4-build-the-certificate-authority
2) Generated a OpenVPN configuration on the RUT950

3) Configured the client OpenVPN connection

4) Under Network -> Firewall -> Zone Forwarding set Default forwarding action to accept for vpn:openvpn

I am fairly new to netowrking so if i forgot to tell you something please tell me and i will upload it.

Thank you for your help.

Kind Regards

Georg

Hi,

Could you draw a simple sketch of your network topology with IPs, gateways, subnets and devices.

Some examples are here: https://wiki.teltonika.lt/view/RUT950_Configuration_Examples#VPN

Thank you for your quick response!

This is the netowrk-connection I desire.

I managed to set up an OVPN server on the embedded the way I need the connection but I want to use the RUT950 since I bought it because of his OpenVPN capabilities.

Best regards

Georg

Then Static key configuration should be enough for your case, check chapter "2. Static key" in attached manual before.
