Setting Up a VPN

Im trying to set up a VPN on the readyNAS. Its connected straight to the router and ideally I would like only the NAS to use the VPN and hide its IP address, the rest of the network can just connect ...

    Here's a OPENVPN

    https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=76015.0

     

    Normally every VPN Service has its on documents.. but there very similar, because they often use OpenVPN (hopefully).

    But you have to know from where to where you have to route.So default route would then go to OpenVPN, but you have to route the LAN traffic over the LAN interface (hopefully you have only one network).

     

    There to stages:

    - Up & running VPN

    - Configure traffic flow correctly.

     

    I'm not shure how its done with the OpenVPN, but please be shure to have at least 1 device in the same subnet as your readynas is, if something is changing your default route before manually defining it.

     

    If you got a chance to enable it on your router / firewall from ISP, I would do it there.
