Openvpn roard warrior explain

Ciao guys,

with basic knowledge of networks I wanted to rely on nethserver to configure my home network

Can you explain me what kind of network/address I need to configure to start openvpn roadwarrior?
On the online docs there isn’t lot detail in this field. (can be that i miss some knowledge)

if I try to use ip already used i got the error response.

Also if i use new network and submaski got “invalid network” error response

my network is so basic :slight_smile:

it should be a “stupid” problem but I haven’t come up with it for days :confused:

NethServer Version: 7.9.2009 (final)
Module: OpenVPN roadwarrior

10.10.10.10/16 isn’t a network address.

I’d use 192.168.191.0 with netmask 255.255.255.0.

Great… it working fine… but… can you kindly explain why it working?
or if you have some links that i can study on it :slight_smile:

Good that you show interest. Please google for ‘understanding ip networks’ and a huge amount of links will show and you can pick your choice from basic to advanced :slight_smile:
