VPN connected client unreachable from subnet

Question

It might be I&rsquo;m missing something very basic here. I have two separate network locations, both with an UTM running. One client from inside the first location / A / connects to the second location&rsquo;s / B / UTM with L2TP over IPSEC. Everything works except that while connected the shares on this client are not reachable from the same location&rsquo;s / A / subnets only from the clients own original subnet. If I disconnect the shares are back again. Can I do something about this?

L2TP/IPsec causes these routing problems because WebAdmin has no idea what subnets are behind the VPN connection. You need to add the following persistant route at the command line in the PC with the shares (for example): 
 route -p add 192.168.0.0 mask 255.255.254.0 10.242.2.1 metric 25

It's working now I added the route to the interface and this way there is no problem after a reboot. Thanks again for your help! :)

I guess it's Routing and that there's a 192.168.1.0/24 subnet known to UTM2. A route print on the command line of the client with the share would show that.
