Introduction to OpenVPN

Practical use of OpenVPN to secure remote networks.

The tutorial will cover the basic installation and configuration for OpenVPN. We will touch on bridged VPNs, and demonstrate routed VPNs with hands-on activity. Attendees will build a VPN with multiple clients and expand on that through the day by connecting VPNs to other networks and passing traffic across multiple legs and VPNs.

This is a hands-on lab with the expectation that attendees will have a laptop. The installation of OpenVPN should be anticipated for attendees on their machines. Attendees are welcome to pre-install OpenVPN, or the presenters will have installation media available during the class.
