- Connect to server using a configuration file:
`sudo openvpn {{path/to/client.conf}}`
- Try to set up an insecure peer-to-peer tunnel on bob.example.com host:
`sudo openvpn --remote {{alice.example.com}} --dev {{tun1}} --ifconfig {{10.4.0.1}} {{10.4.0.2}}`
- Connect to the awaiting bob.example.com host without encryption:
`sudo openvpn --remote {{bob.example.com}} --dev {{tun1}} --ifconfig {{10.4.0.2}} {{10.4.0.1}}`
- Create a cryptographic key and save it to file:
`openvpn --genkey secret {{path/to/key}}`
- Try to set up a peer-to-peer tunnel on bob.example.com host with a static key:
`sudo openvpn --remote {{alice.example.com}} --dev {{tun1}} --ifconfig {{10.4.0.1}} {{10.4.0.2}} --secret {{path/to/key}}`
- Connect to the awaiting bob.example.com host with the same static key as on bob.example.com:
`sudo openvpn --remote {{bob.example.com}} --dev {{tun1}} --ifconfig {{10.4.0.2}} {{10.4.0.1}} --secret {{path/to/key}}`
