Route traffic after OpenVPN server

sm flag

The main purpose - remote access to the local network (video surveillance, smart home).

Input data: mikrotik router and server in the DigitalOcean.

Since mikrotik knows how to work with OpenVPN server only by login and password, I decided to run 2 OpenVPN servers:

  1. /etc/openvpn/server-mikrotik.conf:
...
server 10.0.1.0 255.255.255.0
route 192.168.88.0 255.255.255.0 10.0.1.2
route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 10.0.1.2
...
  • /etc/openvpn/ccd/mikrotik:
ifconfig-push 10.0.1.2 255.255.255.0
iroute 192.168.88.0 255.255.255.0
iroute 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
  1. /etc/openvpn/server.conf:
...
server 10.0.2.0 255.255.255.0

push "redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp"
push "dhcp-option DNS 1.1.1.1"
...

The problem is: a client connected to server 2 can ping both OpenVPN servers, but cannot ping clients of server 1. client-to-client setting is disabled (to use host route table), it isn't working with enabled thou.

From the DO droplet I can ping any machine within 192.168.. networks, route table:

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
