Accessing the web interface with OPENVPN

[primetecnologia]

I need to access my PROXMOX web interface outside my internal network. I even created an LXC with an openvpn client running, communication was successfully established, however, I cannot access the internal network. I think some redirection from VPN tunnel to internal network is missing, but I don't know where to start.

I also wondered if it would be possible to make this VPN, outside the container?

Hi!

This is not exactly a Proxmox problem, but:
¿Can you ping from outside, to the IP assigned to your openvpn client?
¿Can you ping from LXC to outside?

Regards!

1. pve has brought help to my life and work, in order to give back to the community, I would like to share with you a soft router made in China, similar to openwrt; but this soft router only has Chinese language, it can meet your requirements, and also used like this爱快软路由。
2. In addition, I think you may need to remediate the relevant knowledge of openvpn
3. Integrate your openvpn server or client into soft routing, all the difficult access problems will be solved

To solve the problem I simply installed openvpn on proxmox and configured the connection. I enabled ip forwarding following the link below:
