Hybrid VPN Connected, but not working
I have Hybrid VPN enabled and it states it is connected. I have added a host and serrvices for ports 80 and 443. When I go to gooel and search for whatsmyip, it shows my IP for the host I added as ...
How have you added the device with these ports to the VPN? You should have selected Only VPN these services.
Yes, the host is setup as only these services and only those services are added. I have rebooted the host anbd the router. Funtionality just does not seem to work. I question whether it is really connected. The logs are not verbose enough to tell and with no IP displayed, not sure how to confirm one way or the other. It says connected, but I doubt it is. If it is, then the functionality does not work. Only 2 options I can foresee.
- The source and destination port will not always be the same, leave the source ports at the default range 1-65535 and you custom destinations and see if it changes then.
I am getting "RPC error 'ERROR_VALIDATION': Validation failed for 'sport'" when I try to add any port now. Tried removing the device and readding it, disabling and reenableing hybrid VPN, and rebooting the router. Nothing seems to work at this point.
Will try this agin in the next fiormware version in hopes some of the bugs, logging, and infor tab provide better insights as to what is happening. Also odd that you can not see IPs when adding devices. Only shows host name. It probably should show both.
- Could you provide a screenshot of the rule you're trying to create please? For your personal use case, how would seeing the IP of the device help you?
