Generally for VPN's subnets should not overlap at either end of the tunnel or the routing fails. Site B has a massive subnet, 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 (16,777,216 addresses). Unfortunately subnet A is entirely in Site B's subnet. Does site B need such a big subnet or can site B change to another subnet (either in the 172.16.0.0/12 range or 192.168.0.0/16 range but not 192.168.0.0/24 which is not a good subnet and is, in any case, being used at site C).<br><br>The problem you have is that site B sees 10.10.0.0/16 as local to itself so won't route traffic to Site A down the VPN.<br><br>Nick<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>On 25/02/2016 21:00, Leonard Wood wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal>I have a single Openswan deployment (2.6.38/K4.2.0-27-generic) currently connected to two sites—Site A and Site B.
