Local Address unnder OpenVPN

local address
Does anyone know why my Local Address does not match my subnet in the OpenVPN Status? I use 192.168.20.0 but it shows 100.125.X.X for some reason. Would this be for pfblocker or something else? See attached screenshot. Thanks.

The “Local Address” is your WAN IP address, the Virtual Address is one assigned by the VPN provided you connected to.

It’s odd in that the Local Address is not my WAN address nor do I recognize it. I did a IP lookup and it’s listed as a “ISP: Carrier-Grade NAT RFC6598”. I use Starlink so perhaps this is a double NAT Starlink thing? My WAN starts with a 100.64.x.x per my Dashboard.

That address is in the CGNAT range and I do believe that is what Starlink uses.
