These are ICMP redirect messages.  This clearly suggests that something is 
very wrong with your routing.  I assume your netmasks are wrong.  It looks 
like 10.0.80.77 thinks that 10.0.80.150 can reach 10.0.80.4 directly which is 
not the case - it needs to route through 10.0.80.77.

Use separate ip-ranges on either side of the vpn-router or combine vpn-
endpoints from the same subnet in a bridge interface to allow direct 
communication between all members in one subnet.
