Gday,
Im having a problem getting 2 bridged OpenVPN connections speaking with
each other. From what i can see, once they both connect they are both bound
to tap0.
o Below is my server.conf file
ca /etc/openvpn/keys/ca-server.crt
cert /etc/openvpn/keys/server.crt
comp-lzo
dev tap
dh /etc/openvpn/keys/dh1024.pem
group nogroup
ifconfig-pool-persist ipp.txt
keepalive 10 120
key /etc/openvpn/keys/server.key # This file should be kept secret
persist-key
persist-tun
port 1194
proto udp
server-bridge 192.168.50.1 255.255.255.0 192.168.50.100 192.168.50.150
status /var/log/openvpn-status.log
tls-auth /etc/openvpn/keys/ta-server.key 0 # This file is secret
up /etc/openvpn/scripts/bridge-eth0
user nobody
verb 4
o Below is what my bridge looks like
# brctl show br0
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
br0 8000.000024c47b28 no eth0
tap0
tap1
As you can see there are no RX or TX packets for tap1. Ive tried adding
the tap1 interface before OpenVPN starts using the following command
# openvpn --mktun --dev tap1
I can get 2 bridged connections speaking with each other if i create a
2nd server.conf file that listens on another port and instead of using
'dev tap' use 'dev tap0' and 'dev tap1'.
Both bridged connections can communicate with local workstations on the
bridge.
My question is, does OpenVPN support communication between 2 bridged
clients using the same server.conf?
