Hi all,
we use OVPN in standard-configuration (except: connections via 443/tcp).
Unfortunately VPN connections using the Endian are unreliable (high latancy) and slow (attachment 1), even pinging the green interface of Endian.
I excluded most possible reasons by running openvpn with the config file of an Untangle box (attachment 2) from the endian command line. We have much better and more stable ping times using that (attachment 3).
I guess it is because of using TUN instead of TAP (tunneling instead of bridging).
unfortunately I am not able to reconfigure Endian to use TUN instead of TAP so we could proceed using the web interface for user management etc.
- Has someone general performance-tips (except: using UDP, that's not the reason, we have the same bad experience when using UDP)
- Is one of you able to rewrite the configuration of Endian (I think rewriting openvpn.conf.tmpl)? I didn't make it work with TUN
Many thanks, Johann
