# OpenVPN
|
|
|
|
[OpenVPN](https://openvpn.net) is a free software to create a VPN via an
|
|
encrypted TLS connection.
|
|
|
|
## Set up
|
|
|
|
In the following sections the different set ups of OpenVPN usages are described.
|
|
|
|
### Server
|
|
|
|
The software can be set up via [Docker](/wiki/docker.md) with the
|
|
[kylemanna image](./docker/kylemanna_-_openvpn.md).
|
|
Additionally to this a client is needed on the system that need access to the
|
|
server software.
|
|
|
|
### Client
|
|
|
|
OpenVPN clients can be found for many devices.
|
|
For [Android](/wiki/android.md) for example there is
|
|
[OpenVPN for Android in the F-Droid store](https://f-droid.org/de/packages/de.blinkt.openvpn/).
|
|
For most linux distributions there is a package called `openvpn`.
|
|
|
|
### Proxy
|
|
|
|
For OpenVPN a proxy acts as an intermediary between the system communicating
|
|
with the proxy and the OpenVPN server.
|
|
A proxy can be set up via [Docker](/wiki/docker.md) with the
|
|
[jonohill image](./docker/jonohill_-_docker-openvpn-proxy.md).
