OpenVPN UDP protocol support

OpenVPN should be able to read (import) standard OpenVPN .ovpn files that work with the standard client, and that include

remote server
protocol specification
compression options
authentication parameters
client certificate
options like passtos, explicit-exit-notify, reneg-sec, etc. preferably every option of the open software

It is no problem when the file is converted to MikroTik-specific config an certificate storage

I’d rather implement functionality of all those options first, and then I’d think about config importer.

I would hope that at some time MikroTik find some way to replace the entire OpenVPN thing with a recent version of the opensource implementation…
That will solve a lot of issues, at least until OpenVPN development further continues and becomes incompatible again.

They could have done that in last 10+ years. And they still implemented first tcp, and now (after finding suicide-proof developers) even udp themselves. So my guess would be probably not for official OpenVPN.
