Tunnelblick also includes binaries of two versions of OpenVPN with the latest version of the OpenSSL library imbedded in each. Tunnelblick includes several versions of each of the tun and tap kexts (one for OS X 10.4 and 10.5, one for 10.6 - 10.8, and one for 10.9) and loads/unloads the appropriate version dynamically as the VPN is created/destroyed. The kexts used by Tunnelblick are from the tuntaposx project. The kernel extension (kext) that is needed is either a 'tun' or a 'tap' kext, depending on which type of VPN you are creating (it is something specified in the OpenVPN configuration file, and must be the same on the server and the client).

Please if you see something, which is not right in the text above, feel free to correct me.Linc Davis is correct. This holding time allowed my tap adapter to receive a proper network configuration from my DHCP server and from that point all other commands make sense. When I introduced the вЂ“route-delay 10 command, I set a 10 seconds holding time, before the execution of вЂ“redirect-gateway and route-gateway commands. Since my tap adapter didnвЂ™t have an IP address, the -route-gateway command was assigning the pre-defined gateway IP address to my Wi-Fi adapter. Because of that OpenVPN was just skipping the fact that my tap adapter doesnвЂ™t have any IP address and proceeding to routing table modification, but since there was nothing to route, the client was proceeding to the next command вЂ“route-gateway. The problem was that when I was using both redirect-gateway and route-gateway in my client configuration file, my tap adapter was not receiving any IP address from the DHCP server. In Tunnelblick my configuration works only with: Set nameserver (3.0b10) IвЂ™m not sure whether this had any effect on my configuration or not, but itвЂ™s good to know what IвЂ™ve done.

Just for reference, today I installed security update 2014-005 for OS X Mavericks and disabled ipv6 protocol by typing the following command in Bash: Also the final goal is to route all traffic via the VPN tunnel.

Please be aware, that this solution is valid only for Mac users, trying to connect to OpenVPN server, which is bridged with a DHCP server using tap interface and UDP protocol.

Please, can you advise me, how can I overcome the problem in Mac OS X? Apparantley the OpenVPN version for windows can execute both 'redirect-gateway def1' and 'route-gateway xx.xx.xx.xx.' at the same time. I tried to perform the same thing on Windows - my configuration works great. There were some suggestions to try to use 'route-delay 10' or more, but that didn't helped.

Since that's my case, when I try to use any OpenVPN client for Mac OS X (I tried the official OpenVPN Connect Client, Viscosity and Tunnelblick) it requires both 'redirect-gateway def1' and 'route-gateway xx.xx.xx.xx' in order to receive full network configuration from my DHCP server. My clients are receiving their IP addresses, DNS servers and Gateway via my DHCP server located on my OpenVPN server platform. My OpenVPN configuration is bridged using tap interface. It omits one or the other.ДЄ more detailed explanation regarding my case:

I beleive OpenVPN for Mac OS X can't use 'redirect-gateway def1' and 'route-gateway xx.xx.xx.xx.' at the same time. Thanks for spending time with my issue, I'm looking forward to hearing from you guys!ДЄfter extensive troubleshooting (I spent around 6 hours) I think I identified the problem. I have two Windows machines, using the same configuration (different certificates of course) and I have never experienced any problem. Result: everything is OK, all traffic is routed via the VPN tunnel. I wait about 10-15 minutes and reconnect to my OpenVPN server. Result: The connection is established successfully, but no network access. Result: All networks settings restored to Pre-VPN configuration. Result: the initial connection is established, all of my traffic is routed via the VPN tunnel.Дў. The issue is very strange I'll explain shortly is a few steps:ДЎ.
