OpenVPN Watchdog Script for Asus Merlin Routers with Multiple OpenVPN Clients running. This script will check on intervals if the OpenVPN has a remote IP using the built in Asus Merlin /usr/sbin/gettunnelip.sh script. The script will restart the OpenVPN Client if it does not have a remote IP for the set amount of time.
Provided as Open Source. Any Support appreciated.
