OpenVPN WAN License

This license lets a Peplink router use an OpenVPN connection as one of its WANs. With it active, the router can send traffic out through a VPN provider such as NordVPN or Private Internet Access, and you choose which devices or traffic use the tunnel with outbound policy rules.

You don't need it to connect into your Peplink with an OpenVPN client, which works without a license. This license covers the other direction, where the router is the VPN client and the tunnel acts as an internet connection.

People use it to:

• send only certain devices, like a work laptop or a streaming box, through a VPN while everything else uses the normal connection
• cover every device on the network without installing VPN software on each one

To set it up, load the .ovpn file from your VPN provider into the router.

Common questions

Is this the same as Remote User Access?

No. Remote User Access lets your laptop or phone connect into your Peplink network, and it supports WireGuard without a license. Our WireGuard guide covers setup. This license is for the other direction, where the router is the VPN client.

Does it work with any VPN provider?

Any provider that gives you an .ovpn configuration file.

Can I limit which devices use the VPN?

Yes. Outbound policy rules decide which devices or traffic use the tunnel.

When you order, include the router's serial number so we can apply the license to the right device. Call 888-381-7750 if you're not sure which license you need.
