OpenVPN server with multiple NIC

hack3rcon

Hello,
I have an OpenVPN server with one NIC and clients connect to it. I want to add another NIC to it, and I have some questions:

Scenario 1:
I want to set up another OpenVPN server with this new NIC and other clients connect to this new NIC with the new IP address. How can I do it?

Scenario 2:
I want when the NIC1 disconnected, then clients connect to the NIC2 automatically.

I'm thankful if sharing your comments.

Thank you.

Hi Hack,

It sounds like you are talking about multiple uplinks, which requires routing rules and multiple route tables. This is doable in Linux but very non-trivial. For Linux, see the LARTC howto. For other OS, I am sure it can be done, but I do not know how.
