VPN multiple IP address

To make it simple, we need to use 2 different public IP address, since the website we will access are only allow 1 login account simultaneously for each public IP. For us to have 2 login simultaneous accounts we need to use 2 different Public IP address.
Thanks.
So you need two IPs for outbound, but how does that play into the VPN connection?

The VPN connections show the IP addresses used to connect internally. This will not show up to a website. You could connect with a hundred VPN IP addresses and still look like just one IP to a website. Or you could have just one VPN IP and look like a hundred IPs to a website. There is no correlation.

@scottalanmiller We need to use different Public IP address. If we connect to our current setup of VPN we will use 123.123.255.120 (example Public IP) all users will use that Public IP. What we need is user1(authenticated to Daloradius) on will use Public IP of 123.123.255.120 and user2 (authenticated to Daloradius) must use 123.123.255.121. We need to different Public IP for us to login on our specific website simultaneously. Website login user only allow 1 public IP. If we login on website using same public IP we will not allow to login.

If user1 will check his public IP address on www.whatismyipaddress.com user1 will see his Public IP is 123.123.255.120
If User2 will check his public IP address on www.whatismyipaddress.com user2 will see his Public IP is 123.123.255.121. -

The VPN should never expose its inner workings to the outside world. You have a misconfiguration somewhere that is exposing your VPN connection details. That's not good. What other data is leaking?
The site should be seeing the IP address that you come from, not the one you connect to. Having multiple VPNs does not enable that.

I understand what you are saying, what I'm explaining is that you are confused as to how this works and that the VPN connections are not related to this.

We're don't need multiple VPN. What we want to do is we will use 2 different Public IP address. We are not confuse on how our VPN works, we cannot setup it if we don't know how it works. I Think for better explanation on what we need to do, please refer to this link.

Maybe we are missing something in translation. My understanding is that you are looking for mutiple IP addresses for the VPN to connect. Is that not the cse?

https://forums.openvpn.net/topic8559.htmlGood, but this thread was about getting VPN with multiple IPs for each client, not multiple IPs going out, right? This link explains the same thing that I've been saying in this whole thread.

Hi Scott,
Yes, that's what I mentioned on my earlier messages. I think we got misunderstanding. Anyway, when I tried to follow the link I provided it seems that ccd is not taking effect, users define on ccd still getting 10.8.0.x IP instead of 10.8.2.x IP. I think user must take effect the assigning of internal IP address then you can route which public IP he will use.
