framura 0 Posted ... Hi, yesterday I upgraded my router (I use opnsense, a pfsense's fork) to openvpn 2.4.3 and I would like to try to use AES-256-GCM. I think I must to connect to a AirVPN's server with openvpn 2.4.x: how can I found which servers have 2.4.x version? TIA Quote Share this post Link to post

I'd like to hear from you what speed increase you get. For a theoretical test, try this https://airvpn.org/topic/18322-how-to-quicly-test-theoretical-openvpn-throughput/?hl=%2Btheoretical+%2Bopenvpn+%2Bthroughput, using both AES-256-CBC (as it's written) but also AES-256-GCM.

Anyway, I use my router with three different openvpn connections and I am modifying each of them to switch from AES-256-CBC to AES-256-GCM. I noted that only few servers have openvpn 2.4 and, for example, in UK, there isn't no one. I don't expect to get a speed increase (maybe just a little) but a lower CPU consumption.

framura 0 Posted ... Hi, I just configured two openvpn connections with AES-256-GCM (with CH server and NL server, I haven't found any server in UK with openvpn 2.4). Now I will try some tests (speed performance and my router CPU consumption). Quote Share this post Link to post
