Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some guidance on setting up Inbound Services (NAT Port Forwarding) on my Peplink router, specifically when using an OpenVPN connection. My Peplink router is acting as a client connected to an external OpenVPN server, and I need to forward traffic from this VPN connection to internal devices.
My Setup:
- Peplink Model: Balance 310 Fiber 5G
- Connections: Main WAN interfaces, plus OpenVPN client connection to an external server
- Goal: Route incoming traffic (e.g., ports
80
,443
,3389
) from the OpenVPN connection to specific internal devices on my LAN (172.16.X.X
)
Issues:
- I can’t seem to select the OpenVPN connection as a WAN interface in Inbound Services, so I’m not sure how to set up the port forwarding rules properly for traffic coming through the VPN tunnel.
Has anyone successfully configured this kind of setup? Is there a way to make the OpenVPN client connection act more like a WAN for easier port forwarding, or any other method to achieve this?
Thanks for your help!
