UDPv4 link local (bound): [AF_INET][undef]:1194
UDPv4 link remote: [AF_UNSPEC]

I have set openvpn by this guide https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/vpn/openvpn/server or earlier, and its sunday and i get bored and im looking for problems. OpenVPN works as it should, but it has those two lines in bootlog, shouldnt be set to router ip ex. 192.168.1.1?
My WAN connection is pppoe so openvpn can load earlier than pppoe connection happens maybe thats why is like this?
There is not much on google about this line, which means it isnt a problem for anyone, so i just ask for curiosity,
Thanks

There is full bootlog

It's a perfectly normal looking log as you can see here.

These two lines are related to options local and remote (when openvpn acts as client), which in your case are not set.

You can set it by adding local 192.168.1.1 in the config file, but keep in mind that then openvpn will only listen on that interface.
