Model: ER7212PC  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

I have a er7212 at the main site(site A) that has a Static WAN ip address (using the onboard omada controller)

 

I also have er7212 at a site(site B) with a dynamic WAN ip address.(using the onboard omada controller)

 

I want to create an IPSEC VPN tunnel where Site B is the initiator and connects to Site A 

.

 

 

I have had no issue setting up these routers with static ip's at both ends but not getting any where on this one.

It should be possible since one is static.

 

any help would help :)

 

Thanks

use a DDNS provider that is supported by TP-Link, I myself use no-ip which works well with TP-Link. connect to vpn site to site with FQDN

I ended up using the client to site openvpn setup for now.

 

Thanks for the help

As in previous post. Use DynDNS service. If you need free one then there is freedns afraid org or duckdns org. You can also use paid one or your own domain if you own any.

 

Set up DynDNS update rule on your TP-Link. Keep in mind to set some proper update interval. The longer interval, the more time it will take for VPN to establish connection after IP has changed.
