OpenVPN Connect client

The OpenVPN Connect client is the official application for connecting to an OpenVPN Access Server or CloudConnexa service. It runs on macOS and provides a graphical interface for importing a connection profile, either as an *.ovpn* file or via a URL supplied by an organization’s IT team. Once a profile is loaded, the user can toggle a switch to establish a VPN tunnel and monitor the connection status.

Target users are employees or administrators who need secure remote access to corporate network resources. The client supports the standard OpenVPN configuration format and integrates with the Access Server’s authentication mechanisms, allowing seamless connection to self‑hosted or cloud‑based VPN gateways.

What distinguishes this client is its tight coupling with the OpenVPN Access Server ecosystem, offering built‑in guidance for profile import and connection management, and a consistent experience across supported platforms such as Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android and ChromeOS.
