routes - Using OpenDNS to control traffic in my VPN ( WindowsServer 2019 )

Question

I have setup a VPN server on windows server 2019 using RRAS, the server is running in Azure.

On that server I've setup OpenDNS on the Ethernetconnection ( the only available connection on that server ).

This is the IPCONFIG -all for the VPN server

========================================

If I open https://welcome.opendns.com/ on the server, I get a notification that OpenODS is being used.

The External IP for that server is 20.71.206.175.

I can successfully connect to the VPN form my client. When I do I see that my external IP is 20.71.206.175. This is the IPCONFIG -ALL for my client when connected to the VPN

===============================

However, when I visit https://welcome.opendns.com/ it shows that the OpenDNS is not used.

I've restarted all servers and services. I also manually flushed my DNS, but the problem remains.

Am I expecting something that cannot work?

Hope you can help,

Daniel
