    If you create an OpenVPN server or client and scroll down to "Verbosity level" its set to "default".

    It describes default as:

    default-4 – Normal usage range.

    This is not true. If you cat the configuration file thats in /var/etc/openvpn, it generates a configuration file with "verb 1", not "verb 4"

    Is this a typo in the web gui, or a bug in the openvpn config generator?

      Neither. That means default (1) through 4 are the normal usage range. It's not very clear with how it's displayed.

      I clarified it in 2.3 as "Default through 4" instead of "default-4".

        I might have worded it:

        "1 (default) - 4 are the normal usage range….."

        To try and be concise as well as accurate and explicit, but hey maybe I'm just getting picky.....

          It doesn't show 1 in the list at all, that's why it's that way.

            But "verb 1" is a valid config entry, "verb default" isn't.
