Username / Password Authentication
In the Username/Password section, enter the username and password you would like to use for authentication on the OpenVPN
Server. Click the Download CA certificate or Download CA TGZ depending on file format button to save the ca.crt file. This file will
need to be provided to the client.
Note: If you wish to have more than one client connect to this OpenVPN server, you must use Certificate authentication
mode as Username/Password only allows for a single client connection.
Optional: To inform the OpenVPN server of the network address scheme of the currently selected certificate, enter the network
address and network subnet mask in the respective fields and click the Set Network Information button. If you do not enter the
remote subnet here, any packet requests from the server to the client will not be received by the client network because it is not
aware of the remote client's subnet.
When you have finished entering all the required information, click Save to finish configuring the OpenVPN server.
