Force TLS Cipher in OPENVPN Server to Allow DDWRT To connect
Posted: Mon Nov 26, 2012 4:03 pm
Hey,
I have been trying for about a week and a half to get a DDWRT SP2 build 19342 router to connect as an openvpn client to my openvpn server. I have successfully connected the openvpn SOFTWARE client to the server but not the router. I believe I have narrowed the problem down to the router only having two options for TLS Cipher one of them being aes256-sha but my server is trying to use dhe-rsa-aes256-sha.
How can I get the openvpn server to not use anything other than the aes256-sha as its cipher in order to get my ddwrt to connect?
I have found a suggestion that I can also force the router to use the higher cipher but I would need to write a complex script in order to make it work. Unfortunately this script is just slightly over my head and I cannot make heads nor tails of it.
Any advice would be very helpful.
Thank you.
