VPN Server and Service with
OpenVPN [Router Mode]
If the AP is in router mode, you can use OpenVPN software to set up VPN connections
and remotely access an office or site at which the AP is installed. In such a situation, the
AP functions as a VPN server.
This chapter describes how to set up OpenVPN on the AP and on a computer or mobile
device and how to initiate a VPN connection to the AP, using OpenVPN.
Note: In AP mode, the VPN server and service settings that are described in this chapter
are not required because they can be provided by the routing device to which the AP
connects. Therefore, in AP mode, these VPN server and service settings are masked out
in the local browser UI.
The chapter includes the following sections:
• Enable and configure OpenVPN and VPN client access on the AP [router mode]
• OpenVPN client utility and VPN configuration files [router mode]
• About setting up an OpenVPN connection [router mode]
• About VPN access to your network or Internet service at your office or home [router
mode]
• Use a VPN tunnel to remotely access your Internet service [router mode]
Note: In this chapter, we refer to the access point as the AP.
