Introduction. In my last post, I setup the Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite (ERL) as a basic router and firewall.Is this post, I'll be going over the setup of an OpenVPN server. In the past, I used an Archer C7 running OpenWrt to host OpenVPN, so I'll be applying most of those principles again here.. VPN types

Click on Login, you will get a security warning and a warning from the EdgeRouter itself.Click ok for both warnings. On the right side in WinSCP, you will see the file on your EdgeRouter. By default, you will be in the folder /home/ubnt.Click on the root folder icon to navigate to the root of the EdgeRouter. You will now see a lot more folder, including config. This set of instructions will result in a PPTP server using local or RADIUS authentication on an Ubiquiti EdgeRouter. This assumes that you already have a basic working configuration already with a dynamic address assigned on the WAN interface and that there are some free IP addresses on the local network to assign to VPN clients. GUI setup Backup configuration Before changing any settings it Then go to our recommended server utility here. In the server picker, click on the Show available protocols highlight. Now download the server configuration, and it will have all the information needed for this guide.

I have a Synology DS916+ connected to a Ubiquiti Edgerouter Lite 3. I am interested in setting up a home VPN server so I can connect to my internal network resources (like my DIskStation) from my mobile phone (iOS) or tablet (Android) when I'm not at home.

VPN types Creating a VPN server on an Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite running EdgeOS is easy! In this blog post, I set up an L2TP over IPsec VPN server. My setup. To understand the configuration you should first know my setup. I have an Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite with 3 ports. The port configuration: eth0 - My FTTH connection eth0.4 - VLAN4 (Internet) eth0.6 set vpn l2tp remote-access dns-servers server-1 8.8.8.8 set vpn l2tp remote-access dns-servers server-2 4.2.2.2 STEP 5: Setting Pre-shared Secret set vpn l2tp remote-access ipsec-settings OpenVPN Server Setup. Now it's time to set up the OpenVPN server on the ERL. This is done by creating a new interface. You'll also need a new IPv4 subnet for the VPN; I use 192.168.200./24 here. You'll also need to make decisions about which port to use, whether to use tcp or udp, which routes to push, etc.

The EdgeRouter OpenVPN server provides access to the LAN (192.168.1./24) for authenticated OpenVPN clients. CLI: Access the Command Line Interface. You can do this using the CLI button in the Web UI or by using a program such as PuTTY.

You'll also need to make decisions about which port to use, whether to use tcp or udp, which routes to push, etc. Full disclosure: I know little to nothing about VPN. I have a Ubiquiti Edgerouter Lite set up as the router on a small 6 PC Windows Server 2012R2 Essentials network. The router is in default configuration and provides DHCP services to the network clients and little else. The EdgeRouter will be configured to issue DHCP assigned IP addresses in the 192.168.1./24 range. The Basic Setup wizard will automatically configure the LAN DHCP server. See the Beginners Guide to EdgeRouter article for more information. The EdgeRouter forwards the DNS request from the client to a public DNS server. EdgeOS includes a DNS forwarding service based on dnsmasq that is consulted when clients use the EdgeRouter as a DNS server. The dnsmasq service runs in the background and will forward all client DNS queries to the specified DNS server(s).
