I've re set-up my network and have started using VLANs to segregate my normal devices, homelab, and IoT devices. I have one device in the homelab VLAN that I want to be connected to a VPN at all times. I'm using PIA over OpenVPN. The trouble is once the device connects to the VPN it drops the SSH connection to my device (on the default VLAN) and I can no longer connect to it. I can hop to it through another machine in the homelab VLAN but this isn't great long term as I need to set up a web dashboard on the VPN connected device as well.
I'm a bit unfamiliar with this type of networking. I know something needs to be done on the client device to allow the connections from the default VLAN but I'm unsure what it is. For further information my router is a Dream Machine SE and I already have working traffic rules that allows the default VLAN to access the homelab VLAN.
