Revision history [back]

I tried openvpn with the 2.1.0.9 mimikry. I have a more or less complicated configuration with v6

• udp via tun
• route-ipv6
• tun-ipv6
• tun-mtu
• ca/key/cert
• redirect gateway def1
• route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 gateway
• tls-auth
• dhcp-option DNS
• dhcp-option DOMAIN

first I tried to directly import .ovpn file -> crash of preferences. I tried to make variations of complicated options (no ipv6 and stuff) crash

Then I build up a new openvpn setup -> Advanced. I tried to setup the certificates via gui. when then setting the .ovpn file the tunnel can be build up. Deleting the certificate stuff in gui works too (cert confs via ovpn)

But no ipv6. I am not sure what happens with dns resolving (trying it from inside) so I need to make the test from a foreign network tomorow.

Works v4:

• starting
• routing

I once had an openvpn crash and in preferences active was still shown.

No ipv6 at all (options are not passed to the openvpn command). Actual I do not know

• if resolving works with dns behind tunnel
• default gateway works via redirect-gateway or via route option (redirect-gateway is needed for v6)

ipv6 should work especially when starting up the tunnel in a dual stack environment -> v6 bypasses then!
