4.0 and VPN policy

alzhao · 2022-08-11T08:21:10.625Z

Do you mean when vpn policy is actived but vpn is turned off?

Or vpn policy is activated and vpn is also on?

The second one. My service is StrongVPN. Issue is present in Slate Plus too.

I used the smartphone app to configure strongvpn wireguard.

I used mac based policy and add my pc to use vpn or do not use vpn.

All works as expected and dns can be resolved.

What could be the possible reason?

I use vpn policies ip/domain and no dns resolution if dns servers are on vpn network, all is ok if I set an e ternai dns server.
On Slate ax and Slate plus, old or new kernel…

I take some time to study this issue and it does seems a bug.

Submitted internally.

Another issue on slate ax is that on router restart no dns resolution if vpn policies are active. I have to stop and start vpn policies to solve issue. Issue is present on old and new kernel. Slate plus is not affected.
My domain/ip list is very long…

Thanks

Maybe the same problem. Will fix both.

if ones uses adguard then he/she can/should define a custom dns server for a client using vpn as explained in the following post:

Hi @alzhao. Do you have any updates on the issue?

alzhao · 2022-08-19T10:01:02.521Z

Yes. Can you try the snapshot? It should have fixed that.

alzhao · 2022-08-19T10:06:07.376Z

I mean 4.0.2

Great! I just tested it, and it’s working!

antifascista · 2022-08-20T06:46:57.565Z

It’s working now!
Thanks

Another issue is blue led not working.
On kernel 5.4 blue led is working and showing wan activity.

alzhao · 2022-08-22T07:55:48.457Z

LED status:

Blue: System booting
Blue flashing: No Internet
White: Normal Internet

antifascista · 2022-08-22T12:46:25.917Z

Hi alzhao,
I refer to small blue led in the left. On kernel 5.4 it’s blinking by wan activity…

alzhao · 2022-08-23T06:33:37.095Z

antifascista:

kernel 5.4 it’s blinking by wan activity

It should not. Otherwise it is not configured well.

antifascista · 2022-08-23T07:07:08.859Z

Strange for me too but in kernel 5.4 firmware small blue led blinks by wan activity like luci configuration.

LupusE · 2022-08-23T21:07:41.776Z

A little offtopic, but I’m too tired to create a new post, right now.
I’ve tried Kernel 5.4 the first time, today. And my Slate AX is happily blinking with the beat of my WAN traffic … I can’t say if it is blue or white, but is is blinking.
I do agree: I think it is configured in the image. I haven’t kept my settings while downgrading from 4.0.2 (I don’t think it is a downgrade, but the ‘Update dialog’ says so).

same problem noticed on slate ax running latests 4.0.2 release
