== OpenVPN TLS configuration with | ==OpenVPN TLS configuration example with Windows client== | ||
This is an OpenVPN configuration example with a Windows client ([https://openvpn.net/client/client-connect-vpn-for-windows/ OpenVPN Connect]). This configuration requires the router to have a public IP address (Either static or dynamic IP). | |||
===Public IP: Static / Dynamic=== | |||
----If your router have a static public IP address on one of its WAN interfaces, it will be used as the OpenVPN Server address on the client configuration file. | |||
In case you have a dynamic public IP address, it is recommended to use the '''[[Dynamic DNS]]''' functionality, and use the hostname provided by the DDNS service as the OpenVPN Server address. You can find some Dynamic DNS configuration examples [[DDNS Configuration Examples|here]]. | |||
===OpenVPN Server configuration=== | |||
----For this example we will be creating a TUN (Tunnel) type connection that uses the UDP protocol for data transfer and TLS Authentication, you can refer to [[How to generate TLS certificates (Windows)?|this]] article for more information about TLS certificates and keys. Here is the router '''RUT1''' OpenVPN configuration ('''Server'''; LAN IP: '''192.168.1.1'''; WAN (Public static) IP: '''213.226.191.61;''' OpenVPN Virtual network will be '''10.0.0.0/24''') : | |||

You can add push option ('''route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0''') to allow VPN clients to connect to the router LAN network. | |||
Once the VPN server is ready, It will change its status to Active: | |||

===OpenVPN Windows client configuration=== | |||
----For this step, you'll need to prepare a configuration file folder, it must contain the following files: | |||
*The root certificate file (Certificate Authority) | |||
*Client certificate | |||
*Client key | |||
*OpenVPN client configuration file (Client_config.ovpn) | |||
Mainly, it should look like this: | |||
[[File:Config-Folder.png|border]] | |||
And this is the content of the OpenVPN client config file: | |||
client | |||
dev '''tun''' | |||
proto '''udp''' | |||
auth '''sha1''' | |||
remote '''213.226.191.61 1194''' | |||
resolv-retry '''infinite''' | |||
nobind | |||
persist-key | |||
persist-tun | |||
ca '''ca.crt''' | |||
cert '''client.crt''' | |||
key '''client.key''' | |||
remote-cert-tls '''server''' | |||
data-ciphers '''BF-CBC''' | |||
cipher '''BF-CBC''' | |||
comp-lzo '''no''' | |||
keepalive '''10 120''' | |||
After saving the configuration file, you can open the '''OpenVPN Connect''' software on your Windows operating system, upload the configuration file, and click connect: | |||

The OpenVPN Windows client is now connected to the OpenVPN server. | |||
===Testing OpenVPN connectivity=== | |||
----From The Windows client side, you can try to ping the Router's LAN IP address ('''192.168.1.1''') and one of his LAN clients ('''192.168.1.167'''): | |||

The Windows OpenVPN Client can now Ping the router's LAN Network successfully. | |||
