OpenVPN Install Process

OpenVPN Install Process

  1. Create a folder on your server for each customer with a sub folder called VPN
  2. Create two folders in the VPN folder call Used & Unused
  3. Copy all of the installer provided into the Unused folder
  4. Create a folder on the end users C Drive called ‘Idealpos’ & a sub folder called ‘VPN’ on each system
  5. Copy the CLIENT1 (Or corresponding CLIENT) folder to the first POS within the ‘VPN’ folder
  6. Run the OpenVPNInstall.bat
  7. Go to Network Connections & look for a new NIC. Make sure it is named OpenVPN. If it doesn't connect make sure the ethernet is set to DHCP. Make note of IP Address assigned to that POS.  
  8. Depending on the number of POS Terminals you will repeat with a unique CLIENTX installer on each POS/Backoffice through steps 4 to 7
  9. Ensure you update your server with which unique Client folders have been used
  10. Once complete you will need to load VPN IP Addresses into POS Networking setup (Go to Setup > Networking)
