Generate OpenVPN client and server configuration files with customizable encryption, routing, and DNS settings.
OpenVPN Config Generator turns a chosen client or server role, endpoint details, cryptographic settings, routes, and DNS choices into OpenVPN configuration text. It assembles directives that would otherwise need to be written and cross-checked by hand. The resulting files describe how OpenVPN should connect or listen. They do not by themselves establish the endpoint, open a firewall, issue credentials, or prove that both peers accept the same settings. The common surprise is that a valid-looking profile can still fail when its credentials, peer configuration, network reachability, or installed OpenVPN version does not match the deployment.
Role selection changes the required directive set. A client profile identifies a remote peer and connection behavior, while a server profile defines listening and tunnel-side behavior. Cryptographic choices become OpenVPN directives, and both sides must have compatible authentication and data-channel parameters. The generator assembles those settings but cannot test negotiation against the OpenVPN processes that will read them.
Routes and DNS settings operate at different scopes. A route directive affects routing on the host applying it, while an option pushed by the server is offered to connected clients. DNS information works only when the client and its operating-system integration apply it. Review each subnet, gateway, and resolver because the generator cannot detect local-network overlaps or determine whether those destinations are reachable.
No. The configuration is only one deployment input. You still need reachable client and server software, suitable firewall and forwarding rules, and whatever authentication material the selected mode requires. Certificate-based deployments need appropriate trust and identity material. The peers must also use compatible settings, so generating the files cannot certify that the tunnel will connect.
No. Client and server profiles have different responsibilities and role-specific directives. Maintain one configuration for each role, then make their transport and security choices compatible. The client identifies where to connect, while the server defines how it accepts connections and handles tunnel networking. Exchanging those files does not convert one role into the other.
