Issue with VPN limiting access to certain IPs

[John_D]

Hi,

I've done some searching but have not found what I am experiencing. 

I have a MX64 set up in the most basic of terms for VPN. 

I have NAT on and the VPN for clients is enabled with a secret. Authenticating is via a Meraki account. Connecting is not a issue.

When I VPN in I cannot get to all my IP addresses.

The main network is 192.168.1.xxx.

The VPN network is 192.168.2.xxx.

I have a VMware server that has an IP of 192.168.1.8. But I cannot access it. I have to remote to another computer on the network to access it. The same is true with some raspberry pi's. I can get to one pi at 192.168.1.41 but I cannot hit 1921.68.1.42. My main switch (which is a Dell) at 192.168.1.50 is not accessible. 

But if I remote control a Windows client I can get to everything.

I have no rules for limits or restrictions set up.

I simply want to access my home network from anywhere and hit all my nods.

As of a few days ago, I used to be able to access 192.168.1.8 but now I cannot and do not understand why it is being denied over VPN.

I have tried this from work, a cellular hot spot, and my android cell phone.

Any ideas?

Thank you for you help in advance!

On the 192.168.1.x devices there are likely to be one of two errors:

* Wrong subnet mask

* Wrong default gateway

Double check those two settings.

John_D,

this is sounds like a default gateway or subnet mask mismatch or missing issue.  Verify you have them set correctly on all you devices.
