iOS client bind to a local port (lport)

[pinkethan]

Is it possible for iOS OpenVPN connect to bind a specific local port (not default 1194)?

I try to put following config in a openvpn config file.

Code: Select all

client
dev tun
proto udp
remote remote_ip remote_port
<connection>
bind
local local_ip
lport local_port
</connection>
....

There's no error while import this config to OpenVPN Connect(iOS). However, it doesn't bind to the local_ip and local_pot at all...

Does anyone know that's going wrong here?

Thanks in advance

Check your client log - I am not sure that iOS supports those options.

Actually, I use these options on both iOS and Android devices. Theres' s no error message on the log files.

If I remove <connection> </connection>, both iOS and Android shows "UNUSED OPTIONS" for [bind] , [local] and [lport].

Thanks.

Unused = unsupported ..
