Configuration overview and prerequisites
Prerequisites:
- One RUTxxx router
- A Public Static or Public Dynamic IP addresses
- An end device to configure the router (PC, Laptop, Tablet, Smartphone)

OpenVPN connects the networks of HQ Office and Remote Office. Only LAN traffic is going to go through that tunnel, any other WAN traffic won't go through it. This way the VPN tunnel will not be under a huge load and will provide greater speeds.
When the scheme is realized, remote office workers will be able to reach HQ’s internal network with all internal systems, allowing working from remote office to be possible.
