In my scenario, I have a simple home router with a wan if connected to an ADSL modem, an internal if connected to a pretty ordinary switch and the rest of the home network, using pf to NAT the connection (pretty basic stuff). Infrequently, I can no longer connect to or ping the router from internal connections, and have to grab a console, restart netif and routing, and everything then works again. However, I also have an openvpn connection to work running on the router. Work seem to believe that the reason there are 3 huge private network ranges is so that they can use the 10/8 block for DC infrastructure, the 172.16/12 block for offices and the 192.168/16 bit block for VPNs. Until now, I had been assuming - without any proof - that everything works great until openvpn gets told that 192.168.1/8 should be routed down the VPN, at which point everything local is inaccessible. Is there something useful I can look at when this next occurs that would explain why or how it is wedged, so that I can either rule myself in or out of this case? Cheers Tom
