Hi,
i am trying to install openvpn server and following this guide:
https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/vpn/openvpn/basic
my router reboots during this process:
easyrsa --batch gen-dh
any idea why my router Netgear Nighthawk X4S R7800 with LuCI openwrt-18.06 is failing on that?
Thanks
You might be running out of memory. Try generating you keys and dh parameters on your normal computer- faster and more efficient. Just transfer via scp when you’re done.
DH params can take many hours to compute even on a high-end x86_64 / AMD64.
Self-calculated DH params may not be as secure as some of the pre-generated ones. Read https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Server_Side_TLS#DHE_handshake_and_dhparam and make a decision that meets your own needs.
