Hi there,

I am trying to work out how to assign my various OpenVPN clients static IPs every time they connect.

I have found multiple posts explaining how to do it when OpenVPN is on a PC, but not when it is on a DD-WRT based router.

I understand it will involve adding information to my server config and also to my start up commands. I just don't know what I should be adding.

Any advice would be greatly received

I added the following to my VPN server additional config:

client-config-dir /tmp/openvpn/ccd

and these lines to the start-up script to generate the client specific config files:

echo 'ifconfig-push 192.168.1.100 255.255.255.0
iroute 192.168.1.100 255.255.255.255
push "route 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1"' > /tmp/openvpn/ccd/clientABC

Please be aware that the config file has to named like the comman name of the certifiacte of the client.
