Auth Mode
Choose the server mode the OpenVPN® server will operate with, 4
modes are available:
•
PSK:
used to establish a point-to-point OpenVPN®
configuration. A VPN tunnel will be created with a server
endpoint of a specified IP and a client endpoint of specified
IP. Encrypted communication between client and server will
occur over UDP port 1194, the default OpenVPN® port.
•
SSL:
Authentication is made using certificates only (no
user/pass authentication). Each user has a unique client
configuration that includes their personal certificate and key.
This is useful if clients should not be prompted to enter a
username and password, but it is less secure as it relies
only on something the user has (TLS key and certificate).
•
User Auth:
Authentication is made using only CA, user and
password, no certificates. Useful if the clients should not
have individual certificates.
Less secure as it relies on a shared TLS key plus only
something the user knows (Username/password).
