The DDNS address is not set in the OpenVPN configuration file.

2021-02-20 09:42:19

Model: Archer AX6000

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.1.1 Build 20200714

I have set up DDNS to get the address of "***.tplinkdns.com".

I have configured OpenVPN.

I exported the configuration file.

However, the IP address is written in the remote field of OpenVPN-Config.ovpn.

It is correct that the address of ddns is written in the configuration file.

If the IP address is written, the meaning of setting ddns is lost.

<OpenVPN-Config.ovpn>

client

dev tun

proto udp

float

nobind

cipher AES-128-CBC

comp-lzo adaptive

resolv-retry infinite

remote-cert-tls server

persist-key

persist-tun

remote xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1194　　　　　<- ddns address is better

@syun

Hello, thanks for bringing this up.

Sorry that the current OpenVPN software doesn't include the DDNS setting, and it only generates with the IP address.

If you want to generate with the DDNS, you may modify it manually by saving the config file into a .txt and replace the IP address with the DDNS URL.

Good days.

@Kevin_Z

I bought the Archer AX73.
Again, the DDNS address does not enter OpenVPN.
Will this be fixed?
