Re: Cannot access Lan devices over vpn client

- In my current config (see above) proxy-arp is enabled on the bridge but i still can't ping other devices in my lan from my vpn client
- The reason i chose to get them in the same range was to avoid adding routing to be able to ping from subnet A to subnet B.
- How can I change my config for that?
