The .5 and .6 addresses are part of a /30 that goes from .4 to .7, and trying to ping .1 would go out the default route instead. There are many cases where the far side of an OpenVPN tunnel can respond to ping, but not the local. This is also counter-intuitive, but works especially in cases where there is a site-to-site link. The way that we assign static IP addresses for our clients in OpenVPN is done via the client-config-dir option. The client-config-dir option points to a directory with files which contain client specific configurations, like IP addresses for example. Check openvpn(8) man page for more information on the client-config-dir option. When configuring the server subnet using
The network mask is /22 while the IP address pool is a lot smaller. So in this case, openvpn will serve dynamic IP addresses within 192.168.144.4-192.168.144.251 and "known clients" identified within client-config-dir will get static addresses within the range 192.168.145.1-192.168.147.254 (manually set).
In a site-to-site OpenVPN configuration, both sides must be using publicly routable IP addresses. This guide uses a bridged OpenVPN site-to-site tunnel, where the tunnel appears as a router interface that can be assigned to a LAN just like any other router interface (such as an Ethernet port group, a wireless SSID, or a VLAN VID).

In my previous post I wrote about how to setup an SSL VPN server on Windows 2012 R2 and enable external network access to the server using OpenVPN.. This article will walk you through the process of configuring IP forwarding on our Windows server and exposing static routes to enable VPN clients to access network devices on the LAN given that Out-the-box OpenVPN will only allow the clients to This /30 has four IP addresses (10.9.9.4 - 10.9.9.7). The first is the network address; the second is for the OpenVPN server; the third is for the client; the fourth is the broadcast address. So this means that client1 will have the IP address 10.9.9.6.
