Steps to install and configure the OpenVPN Server software on AccuWeb.Cloud<\/h3>\n
Step 1:<\/b> Login<\/a> into the AccuWeb.Cloud Dashboard. Once logged in navigate to the Marketplace<\/b>.
\n![\"Navigate](\"https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Step-1.png\" "\\"Navigate")
<\/a>Step 2:<\/b> In the Marketplace, go to the Dev & Admin Tools <\/b>section and locate OpenVPN Access Server<\/b>.

<\/a>Step 4:<\/b> After selecting OpenVPN Access Server from the Marketplace<\/strong><\/b>, an installation window will open. Customize the settings as follows:<\/p>\nSelect Access Type:<\/b> OpenVPN Access Server provides two primary access options:<\/p>\n
Secure Internet Access:<\/b><\/p>\n\n- Protects internet connections by routing traffic through the VPN server.<\/li>\n
- Shields users from threats on public Wi-Fi hotspots and untrusted networks.<\/li>\n
- Enforces company internet usage policies by securing all traffic.<\/li>\n
- Routes DNS queries through Google Public DNS, which limits use to general internet browsing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Secure Remote Access:<\/b><\/p>\n\n- Provides secure access to corporate networks and public cloud environments.<\/li>\n
- Adds an extra security<\/a> layer for remote desktop protocols and screen-sharing services.<\/li>\n
- Uses the platform\u2019s internal DNS servers, which link cloud environment hostnames with their private IP addresses. This setup allows seamless access within the same cloud region as though the connection originates internally.<\/li>\n
- For VPN servers in isolated environment groups, VPN clients are restricted to access only within that specific group.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t
