Debug an OpenVPN tunnel
You can enable debugging on an OpenVPN server or on a specific OpenVPN client. When enabled,
debugging messages display in the system log.
Enabling debugging is done by changing the logging level for messages on the OpenVPN server and
the OpenVPN client. There are four logging levels, from 0 to 4. Set this parameter to 0 to record only
errors and warnings, and set it to 4 to record fairly complete log activity to help debug an OpenVPN
tunnel.
