DuploCloud integrates natively with OpenVPN by provisioning VPN users in the Duplocloud Portal. As a DuploCloud user, you can access resources in the private network by connecting to the VPN with the OpenVPN client.
The OpenVPN Access Server only forwards traffic destined for resources in the DuploCloud-managed private networks. Traffic accessing other resources on the internet does not pass through the tunnel.
You can find your VPN credentials on your user profile page in the DuploCloud Portal. It can be accessed by clicking Profile in the user menu on the upper right of the page or through the User menu option on the left.
Click on the VPN URL link in the VPN Details section of your user profile. Modern browsers will call the link unsafe since it uses a self-signed certificate. Make the necessary selections to proceed.
Log into the OpenVPN Access Server user portal using the username and password from the VPN Details section of your DuploCloud user profile page.
Click on the OpenVPN Connect Recommended for your device icon to install the OpenVPN Connect app for your local machine.
Navigate to your downloads folder, open the OpenVPN Connect file you downloaded in the previous step, and follow the prompts to finish the installation.
In the OpenVPN access server dialog box, click on the blue Yourself (user-locked profile) link to download your OpenVPN user profile.
Navigate to your Downloads folder and click on the .ovpn file downloaded in the previous step. The Onboarding Tour dialog box displays.
In the Onboarding Tour dialog box, click the > button twice. Click Agree and OK as needed to proceed to the Import .ovpn profile dialog box, and click OK.
Click OK, and select Connect after import. Click Add in the upper right. If prompted to enter a password, use the password in the VPN Profile area of your user profile page in the DuploCloud Portal. You are now connected to the VPN.
