Hello,
I'm trying to get vpn connection managed by connman.
I've been looking in the documentation in the sources or website, but
didn't find my answer yet.
So far, I can connect to my OpenVPN server manually via connmanctl, so I
guess my vpn config file is quite ok.
But the remaining question is about the autoconnection and link
verification.
>From my understanding autoconnect, reconnect etc, that we can configure
in main config file only applies to technologies, but VPNs are not
technologies from connman perspectives, so they are listed as service
(maybe my statement here is not correct ?).
My goal is to be able, as soon as I get proper network connection,
either by ethernet, cellular or wifi technologies to get connected to my
vpn server and in case of disconnection (so implicitly a connection
check is done in background) to get reconnected.
* How to setup autoconnect and reconnect with OpenVPN (also in case we
change technology from ethernet to cellular for instance) ?
* Regarding routes, I would like to know how to apply the routes
pushed by the OpenVPN server as the default route?
* Regarding DNS server, I also would like to know how to get the DNS
pushed by the OpenVPN applied in resolv.conf ?
If my questions are unclear feel free to ask.
Below you can find more details about my setup.
Thanks,
Florent.
