Ok this is what I am trying to do.
I want to setup a openvpn server on a server I have in america.
The current configuration is this.
A main ip on the server that is in the same subnet as the gateway, 2 other sets of ip's assigned to the interface as aliases they not in the same subnet as the main ip and gateway. This works fine.
I setup openvpn using a
This setup uses a lan ip subnet in my case 192.168.0.0
However the traffic fails to route, after some more searching on the net for information, I see various issues, I have no bridge device, and I believe bridge requires a matching subnet? Also if I setup a bridge I have to have network downtime with all existing ips assigned to the nic?
I tried using a
All guides I have found seem to be only people doing VPN's over their own lan's.
What I am aiming to do is have a VPN I can use which gives me an external american ip address from outside america. so its a VPN over the internet, that also routes internet traffic. Like what many commercial VPN services do.

tap device and openvpn client on my home router. Using tls authentication. This seems to work they can connect. so the client to server connection works.This setup uses a lan ip subnet in my case 192.168.0.0

tun interface which I believe requires some routing rules in the firewall?All guides I have found seem to be only people doing VPN's over their own lan's.
