An overview of OpenVPN
The OpenVPN program was created to be a fully functional SSL VPN solution that supports a broad variety of setups, such as WiFi security, enterprise-scale load-balancing remote access, remote access, and site-to-site VPNs.
Using the industry-standard SSL/TLS protocol, OpenVPN implements OSI layer 2 or 3 secure network extensions. It also offers a range of flexible client authentication methods, including 2-factor authentication, smart card authentication, and certificates. Furthermore, it enables the application of firewall rules to the VPN virtual interface to create user- or group-specific access control policies. OpenVPN uses a web browser to function and is not a web application proxy.
OpenVPN’s features
