Title: bridged connection
Post by: ptulpen on Friday 24 October 2014, 10:11:58 pm
Hello,
I want to use endian to connect 2 networks which are physically connected via an unsecure fibre connection
The gw2gw openvpn mode ollks perfektyly what I am looking for, but I have 2 issues:
What I try now is this setup
3.bp.blogspot.com/-mMjdc0Ynj9c/T_t7_B0bjNI/AAAAAAAAG7E/HKkzVhHYUJI/s1600/mac1.JPG
following this guide: docs.endian.com/3.0/utm/vpn/client.html#add-tunnel-configuration
but I always get "ceonnection refused"
With a mirror switch I see that only broadcast are appearing in the network, even when I ping from one to another gateway


The second (and minor )issue that I would prefer a setup like this: s27.postimg.org/w9m5w9yo3/vpn_sheme_V2.png where the connection is like a very long and encrypted cable and everything is in ohne subnet with passthrough DHCP request (I see that I can block tihs, so I think this is possible)


Do you have any hints how to configure this?

Best regards, Peter

Hello,
I came a litte bit futher: now I have the connection between both gateways and the communicate to each other
but the bridging does not work: when I use arp-scan, I cannot see "over" the conneciton.
bridging is set on both gateways

Any ideas how to proceed?

I added arrows to my picture to make it more clear what I mean.
It is like having no IP forwarding, but on layer 2
(But bridging is activated on both sides)
