OpenVPN est un logiciel permettant de créer des réseaux privés virtuels sans utiliser des technologies telles que PPtP (Microsoft) ou IPSec. Il est de plus disponibles sur de nombreux systèmes d'exploitation (Microsoft Windows, GNU / Linux, MacOS X, ...). C'est une solution simple pour gérer un réseau privé virtuel composé de machines hétéroclites dans un environnement n'autorisant pas IPSec.

The purpose of this document is to describe how to install OpenVPN server on an Ubuntu Linux system and have it utilize an Ethernet bridge to access your local network. Ethernet bridges essentially allow the operating system to treat multiple network interfaces as one combined port. When used with OpenVPN a bridge will allow you to easily connect external users to your internal network and have them receive all traffic as though they were locally connected. The alternative is to use OpenVPN with a route but that will not allow some forms of traffic through (such as multicast), multicast traffic is important to me as many games require multicast data.
