| Symptom | Likely Cause | Fix | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Certificate mismatch or RouterOS v6 vs v7 syntax. | On v7, use /certificate/add-file not /certificate/import . Regenerate script for correct OS version. | | Client can ping VPN gateway (10.12.12.1) but not LAN (192.168.88.1) | Missing masquerade or return route. | Ensure /ip firewall nat has the masquerade rule. Check /ip route for LAN route. | | OpenVPN connects but no internet traffic | Client is not receiving pushed routes. | In the OVPN client config, add redirect-gateway def1 . On the MikroTik, ensure route-nopull is NOT set. | | "Certificate verify failed" (Error 0x200) | The client does not trust the CA. | Extract the CA certificate from MikroTik ( /certificate export ca.crt ), convert to PEM, and manually add it to the client's trust store. | | UDP packet fragmentation | MTU issues. | On MikroTik: /interface ovpn-server server set mtu=1400 . On client: tun-mtu 1400 in OVPN file. | Part 7: Beyond Basic Generation – Advanced API Automation If you manage 50+ MikroTik routers, using a web form is too slow. You need an automated config generator .
