OVPN(4) FreeBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual OVPN(4)
NAME
ovpn - OpenVPN DCO driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your
kernel configuration file:
device ovpn
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
following line in loader.conf(5):
if_ovpn_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The ovpn device driver provides support for OpenVPN DCO. DCO, or Data
Channel Offload, moves the OpenVPN data path into the kernel. This can
improve performance.
The ovpn interface is created automatically by the OpenVPN daemon. It
requires no configuration other than that done by OpenVPN.
