Gregor, the TODO documentation you were looking for is at: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/tree/TODO#n119 although, the branch referenced in it is no longer available. It is reasonably detailed, but unfortunately requires better knowledge of C, D-bus and NetworkManager

I also need this feature. We have VPN box from our customer (a special router), which is out of our control, and we have our OpenVPN server to connect remotely to this VPN box.

Rather surprised this still isn't fixed 6 *years* later. All of my customers using VPN access have been forced to run a custom script in a terminal to get access; this complicates their workflow and gives a rather bad impression of Linux to these users. And no, using the OpenVPN "DHCP server" is

I would also like Network Manager to treat tap like any other Ethernet interface. When it gets a "link" (i.e. OpenVPN starts up), Network Manager should take the appropriate action, whether to configure it manually, launch dhclient, or whatever. Yes, you could push options from the OpenVPN serve

Hello Michael, I understand, but instead of announcing IP addresses from a separate DHCP server you can do it in your OpenVPN server, it gives you greater flexibility for other options in the future, like I've done with mine: server 172.31.0.0 255.255.255.0 # this makes the vpn server assign cli
