RBR50 - VPN assigns IP address to different subnet
HI Everyone, I have the Orbi RBR50 w/ FW v2.3.5.30. The issue I'm having is when I connect via VPN (openvpn ios app), the IP address assigned is on a different subnet. (ie: my internal addresses a...
I agree with ekhalil . When I use VPN, the computer that is "coming in" always gets an address in a different subnet, but it also is able to reach all of my devices. If you have a specific situation that isn't working, please describe it.
Thanks for the replies CrimpOn and ekhalil. My specific situation is that I have IPCams that are assigned static address and I have blocked them from internet access via "Access Control". When I am connected to my network via wireless/ wired, I can go to their IP address and access them. When I access my network via VPN, the VPN client being on a different subnet, cannot access the cams. If I turn off blocking via "Access Control" then the VPN client can reach them. I do not want to do this method as it does not secure the cams. Is it possible to reserve/ change the ipaddress issued to the VPN client so that it will be on the same subnet?
Thank you for taking your time and helping on this.
