Possible to override pushed DNS config in IOS version

Post by joshua » Mon Jul 08, 2013 5:54 pm

I'd like to override the DNS servers that are pushed by my provider. I can't see how I could do this within the OpenVPN Connect program on IOS. Is this possible?

You can add the "route-nopull" directive to your .ovpn file. This will ignore pushed directives pertaining to routes and DNS servers.

You will still need to add your own "route" and "dhcp-option" directives to your .ovpn file to replace the ones that are no longer being pushed.
