Hello,
I need help with configuring OpenVPN as client on Ubuntu 16. I installed OpenVPN and successfully started connection but I don’t know how to correctly route traffic to go through that connection.
This is my route table:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
default 188.166.64.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
10.18.0.0 * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
188.166.64.0 * 255.255.192.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
192.168.10.1 192.168.10.5 255.255.255.255 UGH 0 0 0 tun0
192.168.10.5 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tun0
192.168.200.0 192.168.10.5 255.255.255.0 UG 0 0 0 tun0
