VPN functionality

Post by sybarix »

I've setup an OpenVPN server using my TNAS, and successfully managed to connect to it via the OpenVPN app on my Macbook by exporting the ovpn profile. I noticed several things do not work as expected:
1) My IP address does not change before and after connecting to the TNAS VPN.
2) I have enabled the option to "Allow clients to access the local area network where the server is located" as I thought it would enable my to connect to my apps via 192.168.xx.xx:xxxx from another network, but it doesn't work. Please let me know how to set this up.

Hi! Have you tried a new version 2.0.49?
In release notes is mentioned that they fixed this option.

You can try changing to a different server specific static IP. If it works, you can try modifying it back to see if this is the main cause of the problem.

This is common. When you use the LAN IP of the VPN server to access the server itself, there may be routing conflicts.

What is the system version of these devices? TOS 6 or TOS 7? Regarding the issue you mentioned where the connection isn't showing, could you provide a screenshot to explain in detail?
