1 How openvpn client obtains IP address from the server?
2
3 On the sever in server.conf I had:
4 server 192.168.139.0 255.255.255.0
5 route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.139.7
6
7 On server in ccd/ I had client.file:
8 ifconfig-push 192.168.139.3 255.255.255.0
9
10 When I connected to server my client IP address was:
11 192.168.139.7
12
13 So I modified the file on the server.conf
14 server 192.168.139.0 255.255.255.0
15 # route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.139.7 (commenting this line out)
16
17 Restarted the openvpn on the server and when I established connection
18 from the client I still got the IP:
19 192.168.139.7
20
21 I was under impression I should have IP:
22 192.168.139.3
23
24 Do I have to clear something else? Why am I getting IP: 192.168.139.7
