In this example, we will configure an OpenVPN server, will let Client1 and Client2 communicate, while isolating Client3 only to be able to communicate with OpenVPN server

<h1>Generating certificates for an OpenVPN server</h1>
+
Normally, OpenVPN Client access is controlled by enabling or disabling the Client to Client button in OpenVPN Servers configuration, however, at times, more granular control is required. In this example, we will configure an OpenVPN server with 3 Clients:
 +
 
 +
<ul>
 +
#<li> Client 1 will be able to communicate with Client 2 and OpenVPN server</li>
 +
#<li> Client 2 will be able to communicate with Client 1 and OpenVPN server</li>
 +
#<li> Client 3 will only be able to communicate with OpenVPN server, but not with any of other clients</li>
 +
</ul>
 +
 
 +
If You have trouble seeing any of the settings, be sure to enable "'''Advanced mode'''"

1)Navigate to '''System -> Administration -> Certificates'''
     −
2)Generate 2 certificates . Recommended key size is at least 2048 bits for security reasons:
+
<ul>
 +
<li> OpenVPN server tunnel address - 10.0.0.1, OpenVPN subnet - 10.0.0.0/27, LAN device address - 192.168.5.114</li>
 +
<li> Client 1 VPN tunnel address - 10.0.0.6, LAN device address - 192.168.10.216</li>
 +
<li> Client 2 VPN tunnel address - 10.0.0.10, LAN device address - 192.168.20.193</li>
 +
<li> Client 3 VPN tunnel address - 10.0.0.14, LAN device address - 192.168.30.178</li>

 +
 
 +
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:

   −
1) Connect to WebUI and enable Advanced mode
+
1 - <b>Client to client</b> – disabled

=Connecting clients to the OpenVPN server=
 +
 
 +
Navigate to '''Services -> VPN -> OpenVPN'''. Add a new OpenVPN instance with a '''Client role''' with these settings:
 +
 
 +
[[File:OpenVPN Client1 v3.png|none|border|center|class=tlt-border]]
 +
 
 +
&emsp;&emsp; 1 - '''Remote host/IP address''' - Public IP of the OpenVPN server's router
 +
 
 +
&emsp;&emsp; 2 - '''Remote network IP address''' - 10.0.0.0
 +
 
 +
&emsp;&emsp; 3 - '''Remote network netmask''' - 255.255.255.224
 +
 
 +
&emsp;&emsp; 4 - '''Add the certificates from the OpenVPN server''' - Certificate Authority, Client certificate, and Client key which we downloaded in the Certificate Generation step.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
Press "'''Save & Apply'''", enable OpenVPN client, and check if the connection is made
 +
 
 +
[[File:OpenVPN Client1 connected v2.png|none|border|left|class=tlt-border|1100x1100px]]
 +
 
 +
Repeat this step for as many clients as You need. For this example, we will have 3 clients.
 +
=Client to Client LAN network communication=
 +
==TLS Clients==
 +
 
 +
On the OpenVPN server router, navigate to '''Services -> VPN -> OpenVPN''', Press "'''Edit'''" on the server, scroll down and add '''TLS clients''' which LAN address You want to have access to, in our case, we add all 3 clients:
 +
===TLS Client 1===
 +

 +

 +
===TLS Client 2===

 +
===TLS Client 3===

<ul>
 
<ul>
−
<li>Virtual network IP address – 10.0.0.0</li>
+
<li>'''Common name''' - common name of the certificate which was generated previously</li>
−
<li>Virtual network netmask – 255.255.255.224</li>
+
<li>'''Virtual local endpoint''' - client’s local address in the virtual network</li>
−
<li>Client to client – disabled</li>
+
<li>'''Virtual remote endpoint''' - client’s remote address in the virtual network</li>
−
<li>Certificate files from device - on</li>
+
<li>'''Private network''' - client's LAN subnet</li>
 +
<li>'''Covered network''' - Which LAN subnet should clients be able to communicate with in the OpenVPN server</li>
 
</ul>
 
</ul>
 +
==Firewall Zones==
 +
 +
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.
 +
 +
[[File:OpenVPN to LAN zone forward v2.png|none|border|left|class=tlt-border|1100x1100px]]
 +
==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)
   −
5) Press '''"Save & Apply"''', enable OpenVPN server and check if the server is online
+

=Controlling access with firewall=
   −
[[File:OpenVPN server is online v2.png|none|thumb|alt=|1000x1000px]]
+
Navigate to '''Network -> Firewall -> Access Control''' and create a new deny rule. In this example, we are denying Client 3 from accessing any other clients and their LAN networks.
   −

+
[[File:Deny Client3 rule v2.png|none|border|left|class=tlt-border]]
   −
1) Navigate to '''Services -> VPN -> OpenVPN'''
     −
2) Add a new OpenVPN instance with a Client role
+
&emsp;&emsp; 1 - '''Protocol''' - All protocols
   −
3) Create an OpenVPN client with these settings
+
&emsp;&emsp; 2 - '''Source zone''' - OpenVPN
   −
[[File:OpenVPN Client1 v2.png|none|thumb|alt=|1000x1000px]]
+
&emsp;&emsp; 3 - '''Source IP''' - OpenVPN remote IP and LAN subnet of client 3
   −
<ul>
+
&emsp;&emsp; 4 - '''Destination zone''' - OpenVPN
−
<li>Remote host/IP address - Public IP of the OpenVPN server's router</li>
+
 
−
<li>Remote network IP address - 10.0.0.0</li>
+
&emsp;&emsp; 5 - '''Destination address''' - other client OpenVPN remote endpoints and LAN subnets
−
<li>Remote network netmask - 255.255.255.224</li>
+
 
−
<li>And add the certificates from the OpenVPN server - Certificate Authority, Client certificate, and Client key which we downloaded in the Certificate Generation step</li>
+
&emsp;&emsp; 6 - '''Action''' - Deny
−
</ul>
  −
4) Press "Save & Apply", enable OpenVPN client and check if the connection is made
     −

     −
5) Repeat this step for as many clients as You need. For this example, we will have 3 clients
+
This rule will deny all traffic from Client 3 to other clients, but will not interact with traffic, if it's destination is OpenVPN server or it's LAN subnet.
 +
=Testing the setup=
   −
<h1>Client to Client LAN network communication</h1>
+
If You have followed the steps correctly, configuration should be finished. These should be the results that You will be getting:
   −
1) On the OpenVPN server router, navigate to '''Services -> VPN -> OpenVPN''', Press "'''Edit'''" on the server, scroll down and add TLS clients
     −
Add clients which LAN address You want to have access to, in our case, we add all 3 clients
+
Client 1 to Client 2
