To use SSH, first telnet to router and set root password.

uci add firewall rule
uci set firewall.@rule[-1].src=wan
uci set firewall.@rule[-1].target=ACCEPT
uci set firewall.@rule[-1].proto=tcp
uci set firewall.@rule[-1].dest_port=22
uci commit firewall
/etc/init.d/firewall restart

There are two method defining multiple WAN IP https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/uci/network#multiple_ip_addresses. In both cases, addresses are added to the same interface. It is not possible to create 2nd firewall zone, like WAN2, because all iptables rules are using physical interface name to connect iptables chain, and physical interface is the same.

Better is to create second OpenWRT interface “WAN2” but assign it to firewall zone “WAN”. To use other external IP firewall needs to be configured manually by:

| /etc/firewall.user

iptables -A input_wan_rule -d $WAN2_NET/29 -j reject
iptables -t nat -A prerouting_wan_rule -p tcp -d $WAN2_IP3 --dport 80  -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.0.90:80  -m comment --comment "Web server"
 
# goal is to do not pass into default WAN rules
iptables -t nat -A prerouting_wan_rule -d $WAN2_NET/29 -j ACCEPT

/etc/dnsmasq.conf

# set tag "ENH" if request comes from iPXE ("iPXE" user class)
dhcp-userclass=set:ENH,iPXE

# alternative way, look for option 175
#dhcp-match=set:ENH,175

# UNDI
dhcp-boot=tag:!ENH,netboot.xyz-undionly.kpxe,myserver,192.168.0.231

# PXE
dhcp-boot=tag:ENH,netboot.xyz.kpxe,myserver,192.168.0.231

opkg install openvpn-openssl luci-app-openvpn openvpn-easy-rsa

Enable incoming OpenVPN connections:

uci add firewall rule
uci set firewall.@rule[-1]._name=openvpn
uci set firewall.@rule[-1].src=wan
uci set firewall.@rule[-1].target=ACCEPT
uci set firewall.@rule[-1].proto=udp
uci set firewall.@rule[-1].dest_port=1194
uci commit firewall
 
echo "iptables -I OUTPUT -o tap+ -j ACCEPT" >> /etc/firewall.user
echo "iptables -I INPUT -i tap+ -j ACCEPT" >> /etc/firewall.user
echo "iptables -I FORWARD -o tap+ -j ACCEPT" >> /etc/firewall.user
echo "iptables -I FORWARD -i tap+ -j ACCEPT" >> /etc/firewall.user

mkdir -o /etc/openvpn
uci set openvpn.uservpn=openvpn
uci set openvpn.uservpn.config=/etc/openvpn/user-vpn.conf
uci set openvpn.uservpn.enable=1
uci commit openvpn

cat > /etc/openvpn/user-vpn.conf

 port 1194

Add VPN to local LAN bridge:

cat > /etc/init.d/openvpn-bridge
#!/bin/sh /etc/rc.common
 
    START=94
 
    start() {
        openvpn --mktun --dev tap0
        brctl addif br-lan tap0
        ifconfig tap0 0.0.0.0 promisc up
    }
 
    stop() {
        ifconfig tap0 0.0.0.0 down
        brctl delif br-lan tap0
        openvpn --rmtun --dev tap0
    }
 
 
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/openvpn-bridge 
/etc/init.d/openvpn-bridge enable
/etc/init.d/openvpn-bridge start

openvpn --genkey --secret /etc/openvpn/secret.key

Start VPN:

/etc/init.d/openvpn enable
/etc/init.d/openvpn start

# Reboot at 4:30am every day
# Note: To avoid infinite reboot loop, wait 70 seconds
# and touch a file in /etc so clock will be set
# properly to 4:31 on reboot before cron starts.
30 4 * * * sleep 70 && touch /etc/banner && reboot

or independent on system time

30 4 * * *  [ $( cat /proc/uptime | cut -d '.' -f 1 ) -gt 3600 ] && reboot

opkg install watchcat luci-app-watchcat

And luci menu will be available under Services

Problem: Port-forwarded traffic are always from router local IP instead of real external IP address. Solution: Disable masq option for LAN zone (should be only on WAN) zone
