Hello!
I'm trying to make a wireless mesh network with b.a.t.m.a.n. protocol, 
and I would like to secure the wireless links with tinc. My test network 
is 2 wireless routers with OpenWRT Kamikaze firmware, and the network 
topology is the following:
|CLIENT|eth0: 192.168.180| <--> |eth0: 192.168.1.1|MESH-NODE|ath0: 
192.168.5.54| <~~> |ath0: 192.168.5.51|GW|eth1: 192.168.1.51| <--> 
|INTERNET|
                                                                         
                                                                      
                         |eth0: 192.168.2.50|
                                                                         
                                                                      
                                       |
                                                                         
                                                                      
                                       ?
                                                                         
                                                                      
                         |eth0: 192.168.2.135|
                                                                         
                                                                      
                                |SERVER|
My aim is to protect only the wireless links (the tow router) and the 
server with the VPN, but not the client node wich connects to the 
mesh-node by UTP. So far, I've made aVPN link with the 2 touters and the 
server, and at the mesh-node's tinc-up script, every traffic is goning 
through the VPN from the mesh-node, but the client can't reach the 
internet (as I saw from the tinc's logs, the traffinc goes to the 
gateway, but then stops).
I'm attaching my configuration, please, take a look at it, and tell me 
what's missing.
Regards,
David
PS: ifconfig and route was make before tinc VPN was up.

Anyway, most of the configuration looks fine. However, you wrote that the client uses IP address 192.168.1.180. Although the mesh node is properly set up to forward everything to the gateway node, the gateway does not know that traffic for 192.168.1.180 should be sent back to the mesh node. The gateway's routing table says packets for all 192.168.1.* addresses should go to eth0. You either need to add an extra route on the gateway, set up proxy-arp or bridge the eth0 interfaces of the mesh and gateway node to their tap0 interfaces. -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <guus at tinc-vpn.org> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
