Hi all,
I am new to openvpn. I am using openvpn on my linux machine.
I have a basic question about openvpn.
How openvpn process the incoming packets ?
Is it processing incoming packets one by one, means receive one packet
from the kernel, decrypt it and send it back to the kernel then next
packet ?
or
whenever a packet comes, openvpn receives and queues it while doing
decryption of already received packet ?
openvpn processes the incoming packets one by one , both from the VPN
side (the encrypted packets) , and the packets coming in via the tun/tap
interface. This is one of the main reasons why openvpn speeds top off at
around ~ 300 Mbps.
