[](#usage)

### Create Instance

[](#create-instance)

After including the library with autoloader or manualy, you can initiate and configure the class.

```
$openvpn = new Paranic\Openvpn();
$openvpn->server_address = '127.0.0.1';
$openvpn->server_port = '1194';
$openvpn->protocol = 'udp';
$openvpn->easy_rsa_folder = '/tmp/easy-rsa';
$openvpn->network = '10.0.0.0';
$openvpn->netmask = '255.255.255.0';

```

All keys generated will be stored in the easy\_rsa/configs folder.

### Setup easy-rsa

[](#setup-easy-rsa)

```
$openvpn->setup();

```

This is going to take some time, creating required keys for the first time.

### Generate Server Configuration

[](#generate-server-configuration)

```
$openvpn->create_server();

```

Again your server configuration is stored at easy\_rsa\_folder under the keys\_packed subfolder.

### Generate Client Configuration

[](#generate-client-configuration)

```
$openvpn->create_client('sample_client_1');

```

You can create many clients and get theyr configuration in the keys\_packed folder, including a all in one inline client config file.
