=Generating certificates for an OpenVPN server=
Navigate to '''System → Administration → Certificates → Generate Certificate'''
Generate 2 certificates. Recommended key size is at least '''2048 bits''' for security reasons:

For any OpenVPN clients, You will need to generate “'''Client'''” certificates, download the certificate and key, and send them to the client
There are multiple methods of how certificates could be generated, you could follow this tutorial instead:

Repeat this step for as many clients as You need. For this example, we will have 3 clients.

This step should be done on OpenVPN server and all clients that want their LAN subnets be accessible and to access other client's LAN subnets
This step should be done on OpenVPN '''server and all clients''' that want their LAN subnets be accessible and to access other client's LAN subnets.
Navigate to '''Network -> Firewall -> General settings -> Zones''' and set OpenVPN zone to forward traffic to LAN.

==Routes to LAN subnets==
Create a route to other client LAN networks using WebUI. This step should be done on '''all clients''' that want their LAN subnets be accessible and to access other client's LAN subnets.
Navigate to '''Services -> VPN -> OpenVPN''' press '''"Edit"''' on the OpenVPN client and add routes to other client LAN subnets. In this image, we are editing Client 1's configuration's extra options, to add routes to <b>Client 2's (192.168.20.0/24)</b> and <b>Client 3's (192.168.30.0/24)</b> LAN subnets.
(In some cases, pushing routes to LAN addresses from the OpenVPN server to clients, breaks routing on the clients, so doing it from the client side is safer, but more time consuming)

=Testing the setup=
If You have followed the steps correctly, configuration should be finished. These should be the results that You will be getting:
Client 1 to Client 2
Client 1 to Client 2
