      It should be, if you setup your LDAP server under System > User Manager, on the Servers tab. Or use the wizard.

          For IPsec? If you want to know, open a new thread, that is not relevant to this thread.

            Seems to work, i tried both:

            1. server mode (user auth with ldap backend)

            2. server mode (ssl/tls+user auth with local database)

            the openvpn client logs seem to be equal. I was a bit confused first because of the error message shown on the screenshot I attatched.

              Ah, now I remember why this was. LDAP/RADIUS was meant to work with just "user auth" completely in the GUI, otherwise you have to make the certificates for the users by hand.

              For SSL/TLS+User Auth, it does everything in the User Manager locally, but since the router doesn't have a database of users in LDAP/RADIUS, it doesn't (currently?) have a GUI for making arbitrary keys.
