Mikrotik as OpenVPN client

Hello,

I have Mikrotik in my office. At home I'm running Asus, which is OpenVPN server. There is public static IPv4.

I was able to import ovpn config to Mikrotik and it looks connected:

My office network created by Mikrotik is 192.168.88.x and home network is 192.168.50.0. Routing table on Mikrotik:

Problem is ping from Mikrotik to 192.168.50.1 (or any other device in my home newtwork) ends with timeout. I'm trying it from Mikrotik > Tools > Ping.

Maybe I need to setup firewall on Mikrotik somehow? Can somebody help me with it please? Thanks

Maybe you should allow port 1194?
/ip firewall filter
add chain=input protocol=udp dst-port=1194 action=accept

Try to ping Mikrotik from Asus and allow icmp input. Does it work?
If it does, then problem is a firewall on the Asus.

I am pretty sure you must open firewall on Asus and configure routing there
