I have a server with a vpn (is vpn server also).

For some reasons the vpn is disconnecting occasionally.

I have a route that i add manually afte getting up as I need to see from the server (cloud) the internal network, after the vpn.

So i add this : route add -net 192.168.54.0/24 gw 10.50.20.2 manually every time after vpn goes up.

I tried to add this in the /etc/network/interfaces (yes its debian)

up route add -net 192.168.54.0/24 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.50.20.2

down route del -net 192.168.54.0/24 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.50.20.2

but it never gets up automatically.. I assume i do something wrong.

So i want this route to come up when the vpn is connected.

Please can somebody help

many thanks

Why don't you add the route to your VPN server config? – Lenniey Jan 08 '19 at 10:05

What do you use? OpenVPN? IPSec? x? – Lenniey Jan 08 '19 at 12:13
Installed with this script https://github.com/hwdsl2/setup-ipsec-vpn . as it says "We will use Libreswan as the IPsec server, and xl2tpd as the L2TP provider. " can you please help??? hundreds of thanks – Antonth Jan 08 '19 at 12:18
