      Almost my employees use their business notebook at the office and at home to remote working. When they are in the office, often they let their OpenVPN client connected ... I think that can cause some network problem sometimes.

      What's will be the best to block that?

      thanks for your suggestions!

        How about blocking the OVPN public ip on the "inside/office lan side"

          @bingo600 That’s the first thing I though, but maybe that can cause another problem on my network? Maybe if I just block about OVPN port used for the connection?!?

            Yes you could do that too
            On "Inside Lan" - Block <OpenVPN Server Public IP> - UDP port <OpenVPN Server Port>
