Hello,
I have been using Astaro for a few years now i love it , and i always VPN into my home network via the SSL VPN (Openvpn setup) and it works great. I am wondering though how come when i use sslvpn from Laptop A to my home network, Laptop A when going to "whatismyip.com" still displays the external IP address of the network that i am sitting behind and not my home network external ip address. When i setup VPNs using our Juniper devices, or Cisco/ Fortigate appliances the client always displays that i am sitting behind the external ip of the vpn server network... Is this a limitation of OpenVpn technology ?. I am wondering this because i wanted to supply my fiancee a vpn client so that when she is in school she can VPN into the home network and be able to visit websites that are normally blocked on her school network, but since this does not seem to work i have decided not to set her up yet.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Note if i use L2TP/ Or PPTP on my ASG and remote into my home from work, then i actually am able to bypass blocked sites that are on my work network because it detects me as sitting behind my home network
