VPN Dropped

[network_vpn 1]

Hi,

 

Noticed that my VPN service has dropped out today.  I'm using DD-WRT.  I'd like to understand two things, firstly why did it fail.  Here is the status from the VPN section of my router - not sure if there are any clues in here:

Client:

Local Address: 

Remote Address:

VPN Client Stats

 

Log

Clientlog: 

 

ca /tmp/openvpncl/ca.crt cert /tmp/openvpncl/client.crt key /tmp/openvpncl/client.key management 127.0.0.1 16 management-log-cache 100 verb 3 mute 3 syslog writepid /var/run/openvpncl.pid client resolv-retry infinite nobind persist-key persist-tun script-security 2 dev tun1 proto udp cipher aes-256-cbc auth sha1 remote 185.103.***.*** 443 comp-lzo yes tls-client tun-mtu 1500 mtu-disc yes ns-cert-type server fast-io tun-ipv6 tls-auth /tmp/openvpncl/ta.key 1 tls-cipher TLS-DHE-RSA-WITH-AES-256-GCM-SHA384

 

Also when I configured it I also understood that adding the following firewall rules would act as kill switch should the VPN fail - this wasn't the case:

 

Here are the rules:

 

iptables -I FORWARD -i br0 -o tun0 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -i tun0 -o br0 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -i tun0 -j REJECT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o tun0 -j MASQUERADE

 

I rebooted my router and the VPN service appears to working ok again, I would just like to understand what happened.

Check the status page on Airvpn maybe the server had high packet loss

 

Cant say anything about your firewall rules don't know why you use them
