Also note that your routing table will not get updated if the IP address in the DNS entry changes. Basically your options are: 1: at VPN startup, add a route to all the specific host names that you are going to access without VPN. The names will immediately get resolved, but that might not matter, unless the IP addresses change really quickly.

Hi all. Running desktop with win 7. Whenever I connect to my vpn I get multiple IP addresses showing in my command prompt - see attached. The address dont have MAC addresses If the same certificate has been used for multiple clients (which we do not recommend!), then all clients may be assigned the same IP address when they connect. To work around this, duplicate connections must be allowed using one of the following methods: Check Duplicate Connections on the OpenVPN server configuration Jan 30, 2014 · 192.168.1.5 -- Virtual IP address in the OpenVPN Server 192.168.1.6 -- Assigned to the client 192.168.1.7 -- Broadcast address. Then to reach the rest of the network on behind the OpenVPN server, you push a route to the client, so traffic is routed through 192.168.1.5. Also note that your routing table will not get updated if the IP address in the DNS entry changes. Basically your options are: 1: at VPN startup, add a route to all the specific host names that you are going to access without VPN. The names will immediately get resolved, but that might not matter, unless the IP addresses change really quickly. To avoid people getting the same public address each time they go to the internet we want to set up a pool of public addresses that will be randomly allocated to user of the VPN. Also, for their inbound connection we have a ddns that resolves to a single ip address for inbound connections. Limiting access initiated from the OpenVPN clients must be done on the Firewall's OpenVPN tab. You can limit the access there. the "Problem" on OpenVPN is that by general the clients will get different IPs when connecting to the OpenVPN server and so it will be difficult to create rules by source IP address. This virtual network adapter wouldn't get an IP address from the local DHCP server and it wouldn't get an IP address from the remote DHCP server either, instead, it'd get a Virtual IP Address(VIP) from a pool reserved for VPN clients, and this pool would need to be configured to give DNS information as well (as normally you'd get DNS info from

To make things work properly again now you have to look up the static route table in the default gateway system in your private network. If your VPN client subnet is for example 172.16.47.0/24, and your OpenVPN Access Server installation is at IP address 192.168.47.222 then add this static route:

Sometimes though, the second and third OpenVPN clients have the same Virtual Address. This causes my selective routing firewall rules to not work. To fix, I have to bounce either the second or third OpenVPN client until it gets a unique Virtual IP Address e.g. 10.8.0.1. My provider is TorGuard.

In this section, you can configure Remote Access VPN to allow IKEv2 VPN connections, deny connections from other VPN protocols, and assign a static IP address pool for the issuance of IP addresses to connecting authorized VPN clients. On the VPN server, in Server Manager, select the Notifications flag.

The ASA hands out IP addresses for VPN connections and it shows three same ones and two different assigned IP addresses. User connecting from home. Worked fine previously. Confirm with the user what their public IP address is.
