OpenVPN Bridges
The OpenVPN Servers Manager Applet
This applet can be found under the Others section.
It is used to ease the management of OpenVPN Tunnels that can be used with MESHdesk and APdesk.
Again the initial creation of the OpenVPN server entries can be tedious, but once is is completed, the rest is plain sailing.
We will cover the each of the three new entries here in tables instead of screenshots which will make it easy for you to copy and paste.
