Hello!
I've OpenVPN 2.0.0 running in client/server mode (roadwarrior scenario)
which works perfect.
For the second fixed OpenVPN tunnel scenario I've the following question:
Is it possible that side A and side B can establish the tunnel? So there
is no explicit server or client, A can establish the connection to B, and
B to A.
Yes, if you run OpenVPN in point-to-point mode, and have each
configuration file reference the remote peer with a "remote"
directive, you will have a completely symmetrical, peer-to-peer style
setup where each side both initiates the connection as well as listens for
an incoming connection from the opposite peer.
So as far as I saw there are 4 modes:
*) client
*) server
*) TLS mode
*) point-to-point mode
Is the point-to-point mode the TLS mode? If no, what's the difference?
Do you have a configuration example (or a link to)?
Currently I got the TLS mode with the following examples to work:
/usr/share/doc/openvpn-2.0/sample-config-files/tls-home.conf
/usr/share/doc/openvpn-2.0/sample-config-files/tls-office.conf
Thank you.
Ciao,
Gerhard
