source: 192.168.6.200 (host2)
destination: 192.168.5.100
port: 5001/UDP

from network2 to network1:

host2 → any host in network1 (PING, RDP = OK) (UDP 5001 DOES NOT WORK)

from network1 to network2

host1 → host2 no connectivity, no ping.

The only device I can get to from network1 to network2 Is to the
client OpenVPN IP address which RUTX11 receives.

do I need to add additional rules or routes to access all the devices in network2 from network1? any suggestions are appreciate it. first time with a rutx device.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out.

To enable connectivity between the OpenVPN server’s LAN and the client’s LAN, additional routes and configurations are necessary. You need to configure the OpenVPN server to push routes for the client’s LAN (192.168.6.0/24) so that the client-side devices can communicate with the server-side network and to accomplish communication for reaching clients from the server you can use the TLS Clients function.

We have a detailed wiki article that explains the steps required for such configurations, including adding push routes and setting up TLS clients. You can access it here: OpenVPN Configuration Examples - Additional Configuration.

If you have any further questions or need additional support, feel free to reach out.

Best regards,
