No. Internal server replies to client's IP address. Whether it will be sent to client thru "Server" or not depends on routing. Typically you will have symmetric routing setup, and it will go thru "Server". > My question is: when OpenVPN Server recieves one package from one internal > server, how does it control the package and redirect to whom(clientA or > clientB)?
