      Hi,

      I just configured openvpn and i managed to connect through openvpn client.

      While pinging one of the remote hosts i noticed many timeouts but the client shows that it still connected.

      looking at the log i didn't find anything but i found the below lines in the dmesg

      ovpns1: link state changed to DOWN
      ovpns1: link state changed to UP
      ovpns1: link state changed to DOWN
      ovpns1: link state changed to UP
      ovpns1: link state changed to DOWN
      ovpns1: link state changed to UP
      ovpns1: link state changed to DOWN

      What is the reason which makes the link flapping?

      Thanks

        The OpenVPN log will show more specifically what's happening, what does it show?
