Setting Up an OpenVPN-Client
You can use the MoRoS ADSL 2.1 PRO as OpenVPN client, if you want to connect
to an OpenVPN server via an unsecured network. This section describes the set-up
of an OpenVPN client. The basic settings are reasonable factory defaults, which
you need to adjust to the VPN which will be connected to the MoRoS ADSL 2.1
PRO. Here, you define with which IP address or domain and via which ports the
OpenVPN tunnel is established, and if the OpenVPN transmission is performed with
the UDP or the TCP protocol. If the remote terminal can only be accessed via a
proxy server, this can be configured accordingly. Moreover, you can specify here,
whether a default route is set, the local address and the port are fixed, the remote
terminal may change its IP address, LZO compression is used, packets are masked
before tunnelling, which encryption algorithm is used during transmission, how big
the tunnel packets are to be, and in which time intervals the OpenVPN client sends
VPN pings to the server. In addition, you will have the option to display the
OpenVPN status, the current configuration file, a configuration for an OpenVPN
remote terminal (the OpenVPN sever) and a log of the last connection.
Configuration via the web interface
In order to use the OpenVPN client for a connection, check in the menu
"LAN (ext)" on the page "OpenVPN client" the checkbox "Activate
OpenVPN client".
In order to define the IP address or the domain name of the remote
terminal, which you use to have the router establish the OpenVPN
connection, enter an IP address or a domain name in the field "IP address
or domain name of remote site".
Optionally, an alternative remote terminal can be defined, which will be
used to establish the VPN connection, if the remote terminal configured
above is not available. Enter an IP address or domain name into the
"Alternative remote site" field for this.
In order to define the local port at the MoRoS ADSL 2.1 PRO as well as
the port at the remote terminal, enter a value for the required port into
the entry fields "Tunnelling over port (local / remote)".
The OpenVPN transmission protocol is selected with the radio buttons
"UDP" or "TCP". We recommend to use UDP to minimize latency.
