OpenVPN Configuration (Server Expert Configuration)
This configuration mode lets you run an OpenVPN server on NetBox. The configuration upload takes a zip
file which may include one or more OpenVPN server configurations.
Typically such a zip file includes files such as:
server.conf (The client configuration file, referring to)
ca.crt (OpenVPN root certificate file)
server.crt (OpenVPN client certificate file)
server.key (OpenVPN private key file)
dh1024.pem (Diffie hellman parameters)
A directory (with default name “ccd”) containing client-specific configuration files
To configure multiple server processes (i.e. multiple *.conf files each referring to its certificates) you should
place all files belonging to a single tunnel/process into a subfolder or make sure that there are no naming
conflicts.
If OpenVPN is enabled and the confi
guration mode is set to “server expert configuration” all configurations
(*.conf) will be started after NetBox startup.
Consider the following points when running OpenVPN without having established a mobile connection:
Configure a Default Route to the Ethernet Interface / LAN.
Configure a time server (NTP) and make sure that it is available via the LAN.
Manually configure a DNS server (on DHCP Server web page!) and make sure that it is available
via the LAN.
For further information and external OpenVPN documentation please see chapter 3.1.6.1.
