Question

Firmware 2.03.1. It doesnt seem possible to add extra options to an OpenVPN client config from the GUI. Options are normally added in the format "remote-cert-tls server" without the quotes, but the dialogue errors, saying you cant use dashes or spaces.

I've tried adding quotes and apostrophes, but nothing works. Is there a non OpenVPN standard way of entering options I'm missing?

Hello!

WebUI of Teltonika routers are using UCI Syntax and options with hyphens are invalid UCI Syntax.

More about this:

But I think you could try to work with OpenVPN config file, editing it with help of nano/vi tools in command line(SSH,CLI).
