OpenVPN Resource Guide
OpenVPN
Networks with Internet access can be configured to allow Internet-connected clients remote access using a VPN connection --a “secure encrypted tunnel” over which traffic will travel, making the data unreadable to prying eyes. Setup will require each client to be configured by generating and assigning a certificate, and a server to which clients connect. Depending on the nature and complexity of a given network, additional tasks may be required.
