Feature Request: OpenVPN with UDP and TCP (both)

RouterOS RouterOS beta
1

Hi,

Would be great to be able to have the builtin OpenVPN with both TCP and UDP enabled. Currently it is just limited to one protocol and port while theorically RouterOS can allow both being enabled on different ports.
It is usefull for The Internet Enemy countries VPN access and also Road Warrior VPN access from different unknown environments each with its own limitations.
Would appreciate it if you clould kindly consider adding the feature.

Thanks.

Official OpenVPN does not support that either…

I think it is possible: https://forums.openvpn.net/viewtopic.php?t=10473

That article explains it is NOT possible. There is a workaround: run two different servers.

I think the OP also denies man landed on the moon and the US was behind the twin towers terrorism.

I have a mikrotik router with N IP addresses. Why shouldnt I be able to assign one OVPN server instance to each IP address?!
Same applies to SSTP server configuration…

Yeah, with MikroTik there is the problem that in one router you can run only one OpenVPN server. You would need a second router or some solution using container.

+1 for me.

for some installations i used “port forwarding” to use more TCP port.
but is useful have more OVPN server (as I did in the past with pfsense)

thank you

+1 for multiple servers ( whatever UDP/TCP but of course different ports ) for me,
On my opnsense installs, I often create mutliple servers with different sets of allowed inside network ( sysadmin vpn with full access, user server with restricted, guest server with even more restricted)

Multiple TCP or UDP ports might be possible with firewall nat but it is just limited to either TCP or UDP…
