The following document details the steps to take to configure a Roadwarrior OpenVPN connection with X.509 and PSK authentication in Panda GateDefender eSeries.
IMPORTANT: Even though in Panda GateDefender eSeries by default when an OpenVPN Server is enabled both a server instance and a CA certificate are already created, the present document will explain the entire process step by step from the start.
Therefore, the starting point will be a server without instances configured or CA certificates created.
