[SOLVED] Can not ping to virtual gateway

Post by ceremcem » Sat Jun 01, 2019 8:49 am

Hi,

I've installed SoftEther on Debian (see installation notes). Currently I can connect to VPN server by using

Code: Select all

VPN Client>accountconnect heyyou
AccountConnect command - Start Connection to VPN Server using VPN Connection Setting
The command completed successfully.

VPN Client>accountstatusget heyyou
AccountStatusGet command - Get Current VPN Connection Setting Status

The command completed successfully.
However, I can't obtain an IP via "sudo dhclient vpn_bbb".

I did assign an IP address manually (192.168.30.2) to the "vpn_bbb" interface on the client. However, I still can't ping to 192.168.30.1.

What is the missing step here?
