OpenVPN
Tags: vpn
Description
An application to securely tunnel IP networks over a single UDP or TCP port. It can be used to access remote sites, make secure point to point connections, enhance WiFi security, etc.

OpenVPN uses all of the encryption, authentication, and certification features of the OpenSSL library (any cipher, key size, or HMAC digest).

OpenVPN may use static, pre-shared keys or TLS-based dynamic key exchange. It also supports VPNs with dynamic endpoints (DHCP or dial-up clients), tunnels over NAT or connection-oriented stateful firewalls (like Linux's iptables).
