How To Create OpenVPN Server for Secure Remote Corporate Access in Linux Debian/Mint/Ubuntu with client public key authentication

OpenVPN Setup Server Tutorial Guide Corporate LAN Access

Why choose OpenVPN instead of a firewall appliance?

OpenVPN can be a reliable and easy replacement for traditional hardware or just be an additional tool that your company uses so that the firewall can focus on its job rather than acting as a VPN appliance at the same time.

When comparing OpenVPN with traditional firewall appliances for VPN functionalities, OpenVPN stands out with its flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and performance capabilities.

One key thing is that if you follow a guide like this, there are 0 license fees, whereas the OpenVPN Access Server is charged per connection/user.  By having the knowledge or hiring a competent firm, you can have more VPN throughput for essentially free (or just the cost of maintenance/network administration).

Flexibility

One of the most significant advantages of OpenVPN is its exceptional flexibility. Unlike GRE, IPSec, L2TP, and PPTP VPNs, which may require special protocol support from local networks and routers, OpenVPN can operate over virtually any TCP or UDP port. This flexibility is particularly advantageous in environments with restrictive network policies, such as hotels or public Wi-Fi networks, where traditional VPN protocols are often blocked or throttled. By leveraging common ports, such as TCP 443, OpenVPN traffic can be indistinguishable from regular HTTPS traffic, effectively bypassing these restrictions and ensuring reliable connectivity from nearly any location.

Cost-Effectiveness

From a cost perspective, OpenVPN presents a compelling argument when compared to hardware-based firewall appliances. Many firewall appliances can be expensive, not only in terms of initial investment but also considering maintenance and licensing fees. OpenVPN, on the other hand, can be deployed on a standard server or even within a virtual machine (VM), leveraging existing hardware and virtualization technologies. This approach allows for significant savings while still achieving the desired VPN functionality. The open-source nature of OpenVPN further enhances its cost-effectiveness, as there are no licensing fees associated with its deployment.

Performance and Reliability

Regarding performance and reliability, OpenVPN, when configured on a capable server or set of redundant VMs with fast networking, can outperform many dedicated firewall appliances. The average server today is powerful enough to handle a substantial amount of VPN traffic, offering higher throughput levels than what might be possible with a specialized but potentially less powerful firewall appliance. Furthermore, deploying OpenVPN in a redundant configuration across multiple VMs can provide high availability and fault tolerance, ensuring continuous VPN service even in the event of a hardware failure or other issues affecting a single server.

This redundancy and scalability are not always readily achievable with physical firewall appliances without incurring additional costs for more hardware and complex clustering configurations. Virtualization technologies allow for rapid deployment, scaling, and migration of OpenVPN instances, which can be crucial for businesses requiring dynamic adjustment to their network load or topology.

 


Here is a link to the step-by-step OpenVPN video that implements this solution.

This guide assumes that you are trying to connect to a corporate network.  The config assumes that you have dual NICs on the server with a public and private subnet.

First of all you need to define what IP range the OpenVPN server will be running on. 

Network Option 1.)

There are a few options, such as the OpenVPN sitting exclusively on the internal network, with the port and protocol that the server is used on being forwarded to this via the router and/or firewall.

Network Option 2.)

The OpenVPN server could sit on both the public and private network segments with an IP on the public side and an IP on the LAN side.  For routing and firewalling it would be desirable to have two separate NICs (1 for each side).

Note that this all occurs on the OpenVPN Server Side

2.) Create Certificates for OpenVPN Server

We will use the handy utilities from easy-rsa that were installed above when we installed OpenVPN:

This commands below creates a directory "rttCerts" with everything we need to generate our certificates

make-cadir rttCerts

An ls reveals the scripts and other directories created inside rttCerts

root@rtt:~/rttCerts# ls
easyrsa  openssl-easyrsa.cnf  vars  x509-types

Use init-pki to get started

./easyrsa init-pki

Note: using Easy-RSA configuration from: ./vars

init-pki complete; you may now create a CA or requests.
Your newly created PKI dir is: /root/rttCerts/pki

Generate our DH (Diffie Helman) Exchange Key

./easyrsa gen-dh

/root/rttCerts/pki/issued/rttrequest.csr.crt
/root/rttCerts/pki/private/rttrequest.csr.key

3.) Configure OpenVPN Server

In newer distros including Debian the config file for the server is stored here:

/etc/openvpn/server/

The traditional way is to just name the file within the path as "server.conf"

Let's describe the key elements that server.conf will need to act as a server based on the specs we choose:

 

#this specifies the port that the OpenVPN server will listen on
port 4443
# specify the protocol as tcp
proto tcp-server
# if we have a tcp-server we need to set the tls-server option or the server won't start
tls-server
# we have to set the mode as server
mode server
#this specifies the adapter mode (TUN or TAP).  TUN is used as "routing mode" and is normally recommended
#TAP is for more advanced use and creates a bridge, although some clients may not be able to use this mode due to permissions on certain computers/devices
dev tun
#diffie helman exchange cert that we create
dh dh.pem
#OpenVPN Server Certificate that we created
ca ca.crt
tun-mtu 1500
#OpenVPN Server Key that we created
key rttrequest.csr.key
cert rttrequest.csr.crt

# This is helpful to ensure that traffic destined for the OpenVPN IP range (change the subnet to be the one you use on your LAN) are routed to the OpenVPN server IP via the tunnel otherwise your VPN won't work
push "route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0"
# 10.10.10.85 becomes the IP of tun0 on the server that users connect to, so in other words this would be the public IP
ifconfig 10.10.10.85 10.10.10.86
#this is the IP range and subnet mask that the OpenVPN server hands out by DHCP to the remote clients normally this should be your LAN subnet
ifconfig-pool 192.168.1.90 192.168.1.100
# allows other clients to communicate and see each other
client-to-client
#this stuff is related to logging where we write our status and logs to /var/log/openvpn/*
status /var/log/openvpn/openvpn-status.log
log         /var/log/openvpn/openvpn.log
log-append  /var/log/openvpn/openvpn.log
# set verbosity to 6 which shows a lot of helpful info for debugging purposes
verb 6

 

 

4.) Start the OpenVPN Server Manually for Testing

The way the service works is based on the conf file name.  For example to start the OpenVPN server config in /etc/openvpn/server.conf you could use this: systemctl start openvpn@server

If the config file was named "realtechtalk.conf" then the command would be : systemctl start openvpn@realtechtalk

openvpn /etc/openvpn/server.conf

This is a great way to quickly troubleshoot through config errors so we can see the output live, before relying on the system service (eg. systemctl start openvpn).

 

5.) Wait, we need to enable IP Forwarding for this to work

Let's use sed to permanently enable it

sed -i 's/#net.ipv4.ip_forward=1/net.ipv4.ip_forward=1/' /etc/sysctl.conf

Let's enable/reread the config from sysctl.conf

sysctl -p

Verify ip_forwarding is enabled:

cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
1

If using two NICs on the OpenVPN Server you will need to enable proxy_arp for the arp entry to appear on the OpenVPN server.

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/proxy_arp

To make it permanent add it to sysctl.conf:

net.ipv4.conf.all.proxy_arp=1

One more important tricky thing to remember!

In a general/real life situation, we would normally set a certain amount of IPs for local and remote hosts to make routing easier.

That is, the VPN server needs to know whether to route traffic to each IP in this range through the tunnel or the LAN.  This would normally be done using an init-script on boot or an up-script when OpenVPN server starts.

You should manually create routes for each VPN client IP on the host/OpenVPN Server:

#this rule assumes that .90 is a VPN client IP so we will need to route it through the tunnel

route add 192.168.1.90 dev tun0

#this rule is like a catch all for anything less specific than above, by default other IPs in this range will be routed through the LAN

ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0

**Sometimes the above will not work without a lower metric, depending on the defaults of your OS.  If you have any issue with the routes above not being prioritized, you can delete the route and readd it using a metric.

eg.

route add 192.168.1.90 dev tun0 metric 0

6.) Generate Client Key

Write out database with 1 new entries
Data Base Updated

 

7.) Connect Client

This is based on the client we created above which was named "realtechtalk.com" so there will be a .crt for the certificate and .key for the private key.

Files required:

  1. ca.crt
  2. realtechtalk.com.crt
  3. realtechtalk.com.key

Manual Example:

Change 10.10.10.11 4443 to your VPN server IP and port.  Change the file locations to the locations of your key, certificate and ca

Change --proto tcp-client to --proto udp if you are not using tcp in the command below.

openvpn --pull --tls-client --dev tun --key rttCerts/pki/private/realtechtalk.com.key --cert rttCerts/pki/issued/realtechtalk.com.crt --ca rttCerts/pki/ca.crt  --remote 10.10.10.11 4443 --proto tcp-client

Note pull is important otherwise your tunnel (tun0) will NEVER get an IP or any other pushed info like routing, DHCP etc..

 

How To Generate an OpenVPN Client Config File

We've actually done that above, let's take the example command above and see how each -- parameter is really the same as the config file.

openvpn --pull --tls-client --dev tun --key rttCerts/pki/private/realtechtalk.com.key --cert rttCerts/pki/issued/realtechtalk.com.crt --ca rttCerts/pki/ca.crt  --remote 10.10.10.11 4443 --proto tcp-client

Resulting OpenVPN Config

As you can see, all we need was remove the -- from each argument and put it on a separate line to create our config file, which is what you would normally want the user to have.  You can take the config below, along the keys and distribute it to your users to use on any OS/device that has the OpenVPN client installed (eg. OpenVPN Connect for Android/IOS) or Windows, Mac etc..

pull
tls-client
dev tun
key rttCerts/pki/private/realtechtalk.com.key
cert rttCerts/pki/issued/realtechtalk.com.crt
ca rttCerts/pki/ca.crt  
remote 10.10.10.11 4443
proto tcp-client

One other handy way is if you can do a search and replace for "--" and replace it with "\n" in an advanced text editor and you can automatically translate the original command into a config file.

Example using OpenVPN client on Mint 20

Click on advanced to specify the following things:

Use Custom gateway port: if you have a non-standard port (eg. our example server uses 4443)

Use a TCP connection: if your server is using TCP and not UDP (eg. our example server uses TCP)

Set virtual device type: TUN or TAP (must match what the server uses eg. our example uses TUN)

 

 

Errors:

Can't connect to OpenVPN server even though we can ping and telnet to the OpenVPN Server

 

Bad encapsulated packet length from peer (3338), which must be > 0 and <= 1626 -- please ensure that --tun-mtu or --link-mtu is equal on both peers -- this condition
