Remote access to static IP addresses over VPN
Posted: Mon Apr 03, 2023 3:36 pm
Hello, I have a slight issue. I currently have a PLC project with a static IP, along with other connected devices, all with static IP adresses. I have a mini pc hooked up to the plc over ethernet, and am using wifi for internet.
The ethernet adapter has a static IP address in the same pool as the rest of the devices: 192.168.1.xxx.
I created a server, and i'm using secureNAT in order to use DHCP server for anyone connecting to the server to set their IP addresses in the same pool as the static IPs. The PLC and other devices do NOT act as a DHCP server, they are static IP addresses only.
After I connect to the server, I can ping the server, my VPN address is in the same pool, but I cannot ping any of the static addresses connected through ethernet.
Layer 3 Switch is not enabled/configured.
Local Bridge is enabled and set to the ethernet NIC.
I connect to the VPN successfully, have "internet access", but cannot communicate with any device connected to the ethernet.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
