(Copied from http://openvpn.net/archive/openvpn-users/2007-08/msg00145.html)

With the default mode (the implicit "topology net30") I used to do this to
assign static routes towards a given client:

$ cat /etc/openvpn/ccd/some-client
iroute 10.20.1.0 255.255.255.0
iroute 10.250.0.0 255.255.255.0
$ cat /etc/openvpn/server.conf
[...]
route 10.20.1.0 255.255.255.0
route 10.250.0.0 255.255.255.0
[...]

When the tunnel was established, the static routes were set towards that
particular client. Everything worked fine.

With "topology subnet" it doesn't seem to work, as 'route' now needs
a gateway argument. However, the IP of the connecting client is not
known, and neither 'route' nor 'client-connect' can be used in the
client-config-dir file (where iroute is used).

Subnet topology is a great step forward, but it's currently not
usable in situations where clients connect subnets to the server.

The best solution would be to allow 'route' directives in the
per-client config files in client-config-dir.
