Description

I was attempting to set up an OpenVPN tunnel so I could connect my phone thru my home network.
The desired behavior was to have ALL traffic through the VPN.

I added the server a-la numerous guides and also following documentation.
When complete, I was able to connect and was able to access local resources (on the home network) but unable to route to the Internet.

Eventually I added an Outgoing NAT rule which solved the issue.

I'm unsure if the feature used to, or should, add that outgoing NAT rule automatically.
I had my outgoing NAT set to Manual, so perhaps that was why it wasn't created for me.

But, if that box is checked, I believe it should add the outgoing NAT rule, or there should be an option for it if the feature is selected in the wizard at least (like there is already the options to create the WAN rule and the pass rule in the OpenVPN table).
