I have a router with ddwrt and am trying to convert over to openwrt. I have a functional openVPN setup that I've been using for a while on ddwrt. I loaded OpenWRT on a spare router and get a nice UI and am trying to get the same settings (certificates and such) I had in ddwrt set up in openWRT. It is not clear as to how I set up the server to use a tls_auth. My clients connect with this ovpn config:
client
verb 4
connect-retry-max 5
connect-retry 5 300
resolv-retry 60
dev tun
remote my.server 1194 udp
key-direction 1
route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 vpn_gateway
nobind
remote-cert-tls server
persist-tun
preresolve
management-query-proxy
mssfix
fragment 1400
float
When I go to this page: OpenWRT ovpn setup I see a of of text that I am supposed to type in, but the UI gives me 3 options to choose from. Seems to be a bit of a disconnect. Is there a more current howto on setting up an OpenVPN server on openWRT which is aligned with the current UI? Even so, I sense that tls_auth is not common and still want to know where I need to go to add this.
When I load and open the basic UI, I see that I needed to add some openVPN packages (done). I fiogured that part out. Now I get an openVPN choice in the menu. Woo Hoo! Is there a page describing how to go to the next step and set this up? I did click through and thought I had set this up, but then nothing started.
Regards,
Keith
