I am running routerboardOS 4.1 on a Mikro-Tik 450g router board. I am attempting to configure the vpn using openvpn. I have tried to follow a number of docs on this, but I either have something misconfigured, or am misunderstanding some instruction. From googling around I can see there are many others having the same difficulties, so a clear, line by line set of instructions would be appreciated by many.<br />
<br />
In my first vpn I want to duplicate the road warrior vpn I had setup on my IPCop box ,and PFsense box. This configuration used openvpn with ipsec, but it seems the standard Mikro-Tik solution utilizes pppt. I would much prefer that users are NOT required to login. <br />
<br />
In IPCop and PFsense, it was as simple as creating the vpn on the server, creating the certificates, and matching files, and importing them to the server. The client had the appropriate matching info in the .ovpn config, and that was all there was to it.<br />
<br />
I would greatly appreciate step by step instructions to set up the same kind of vpn using my Mikro-Tik router.<br />
<br />
Using the command line for the configuration &nbsp;is fine.<br />

Need help creating road warrior vpn on routerboard (Mikro-Tik)

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.

Remote access may refer to the connection to a data-processing system from a remote location, for example through a virtual private network remote desktop software, terminal emulation, or the activation of features of a business telephone system from outside the business's premises.

Remote Access

Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) is a protocol suite for secure Internet Protocol (IP) communications by authenticating and encrypting each IP packet of a communication session. IPsec includes protocols for establishing mutual authentication between agents at the beginning of the session and negotiation of cryptographic keys to be used during the session. IPsec can be used in protecting data flows between a pair of hosts (host-to-host), between a pair of security gateways (network-to-network), or between a security gateway and a host (network-to-host). IPsec is an end-to-end security scheme operating in the Internet Layer of the Internet Protocol Suite.
