How to disconnect users after device goes to sleep

Post by mohsenkh » Sun Sep 13, 2020 4:40 pm

I installed openVPN on ubuntu 18.04 server and use https://git.io/vpn for installing openVPN on my server.

I changed server config for able to connect several users with an ovpn file with :

Code: Select all

duplicate-cn
So here is my question:
I wanna when a user's device goes to sleep VPN disconnects and do not reconnect again ( I mean preventing something like alwaysOn or on-demand in iOS)
I tried to eliminate

Code: Select all

keepalive
and add

Code: Select all

inactive 50
and

Code: Select all

ping-exit 50
and

Code: Select all

ping-restart 0
but it didn't work form me. what is the problem??

Here is my server.conf

Server config
local serverIp
port 1194
proto udp
dev tun
ca ca.crt
cert server.crt
key server.key
dh dh.pem
auth SHA512
#client-cert-not-required

#plugin /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openvpn/plugins/openvpn-plugin-auth-pam.so /e$
tls-crypt tc.key
topology subnet
inactive 50
server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
push "redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp"

push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8"
push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.4.4"
cipher AES-256-CBC

status openvpn-status.log
log /var/log/openvpn/openvpn.log
log-append /var/log/openvpn/openvpn.log

and here is my client.ovpn config

Client config
