Section 7 - VPN
Open VPN
Path: VPN > OpenVPN > OpenVPN Settings
OpenVPN allows peers to authenticate each other using certiīcates, or username/password. When used in a
multiclient-server conīguration, it allows the server to release an authentication certiīcate for every client, using
signature and Certiīcate authority. An OpenVPN can be established through this router.
You can select server mode, client mode, or access server client mode. In access server client mode, the user has to
download the auto login proīle from the OpenVPN Access Server and upload the same to connect.
Server
OpenVPN Settings
To conīgure the router as an OpenVPN Server:
1. Click VPN > OpenVPN > OpenVPN Settings.
2. Toggle OpenVPN to ON and complete the īelds in the table below.
The router provides OmniSSL feature, a customized OpenVPN, which is an alternate to the SSL VPN connectivity
while supporting most of the SSL VPN features. OmniSSL provides an executable conīguration īle via a portal
page (https://<WAN>/OmniSSL or https://<WAN>/OmniSSL/ (maintaining backward compatibility)) that facilitates
the client installation from the device and is an enhancement to the existing OpenVPN. Additionally, this VPN
tool can be used via mobile devices, thereby, eliminating browser and Java dependencies typical to SSL VPN
solutions including that oīered in the DSR.
