Can OpenVPN listen on multiple ports?
However OpenVPN does not support listening on multiple ports from a single instance of the server. The usual advice is to run separate instances of OpenVPN for each port. This has some obvious disadvantages – more configurations to manage, more subnets, more firewall rules, etc.
What ports need to be open for OpenVPN server?
By default the OpenVPN Access Server comes configured with OpenVPN daemons that listen on port 1194 UDP, and OpenVPN daemons that listen on port 443 TCP. While the best connection for an OpenVPN tunnel is via the UDP port, we implement TCP 443 as a fallback method.
How do I change OpenVPN ports?
To change the OpenVPN port, please select the OpenVPN connection you want to edit and then click on the Edit button. Please note, the edit button will appear grayed out if no connection is selected on the left hand side of the Network Connections pop up.
How do I connect to multiple OpenVPN servers?

You can add a additional adapter by a batch file provided by the TAP driver. Open a command prompt with administrative rights and change to the TAP install folder.
Can I run multiple OpenVPN tunnels on a single machine?
Yes, of course. If you are running 2 or more OpenVPN instances on the same machine, you will need a separate virtual TUN/TAP adapter and a separate port (using the port directive) for each instance.
Does OpenVPN allow port forwarding?
First, make sure the OpenVPN server will be accessible from the internet. That means: opening up UDP port 1194 on the firewall (or whatever TCP/UDP port you’ve configured), or. setting up a port forward rule to forward UDP port 1194 from the firewall/gateway to the machine running the OpenVPN server.

Can I have multiple OpenVPN connections?
The OpenVPN Connect Client does not support having multiple networks connected at the same time on purpose. It’s meant for end-users that need just one connection. This is to avoid people running into subnet collissions and routing problems and unexpected paths of traffic.

How do I allow multiple VPN connections?
One technique for using multiple VPNs together is to run one VPN on the primary OS and install the other VPN on a VM that runs in the device. If more than one OS is available, such as Windows and Linux, consider using Linux for the VM. Once the VM is launched, install free software, such as OpenVPN, in the VM.
