Tags: #VLAN & Multi-Networks #VPN #Load Balancing
Model: ER605 (TL-R605)  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.1 Build 20210723 Rel.64608

Trying to setup all devices on LAN to use VPN to route all outbound packets.

 

(Router is load balancing two WANs, so setting up VPN on both)

 

Configured the "L2TP Client" settings.  For "Remote Subnet", I'm using 0.0.0.0/0 as I want everything outbound routed through the VPN.

 

But, nothing is being routed.  The "tunnel list" is empty.

 

How lost am I?

Dear @blackburied ，

 

Okay, I see.

Then I think we find the point.

If you set ER605 as a VPN Client, you need to add the Policy routing to achieve that.

Go to Transmission----Routing----Policy Routing, add a rule and choose "VPN Tunnel" in WAN box.

Thank you so much for taking the time to report the issue to our community!

 

Could you please share a screenshot to show the empty Tunnel list?

Because if the tunnel list you said like below, it means no VPN clients connect to this ER605 VPN Server.

empty tunnel list  @Hank21 You say "it means no VPN clients connect to this ER605 VPN Server.".  I'm not setting-up the router as a VPN server, rather, as a client.
