   * Extra TLS-Auth:  Enable a kind of "HMAC  firewall" on OpenVPN's TCP/UDP port, where TLS control channel packets bearing an incorrect HMAC signature can be dropped immediately without response.  "Yes" is a good choice if **all** clients support it. //[client.ovpn]//

   * External Hosts:  Define a space separated list of allowed IPv4/IPv6 addresses via the external interface. The external firewall rules are automatically created by the [[userdoc:tt_firewall_plugins#openvpn-server|openvpn-server plugin]] .  The firewall must be enabled, see the "Enable Firewall" section below for more info.
+  * Client Isolation:  Choose to "Pass" or "Deny" Client->Client traffic. "Deny" isolates connected clients, blocking access with each other.
 !!Tip ->!! Allow any external IPv4/IPv6 address by defining "External Hosts:" to "0/0".

 Next, download your credentials from the AstLinux OpenVPN server page, unzip the package, and using the **openvpn-cert-key** format ''client.ovpn'' file, place the (''win7.ovpn'' in this example) file into the following folder:
-  C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config
+  C:\Users\<USER>\OpenVPN\config\
-On newer OpenVPN versions the "config" folder must be created manually.

+Or more simply, find the OpenVPN task in the system tray, right-click on it, select "Import file..." and select your named **openvpn-cert-key** format ''client.ovpn'' file.
-Alternatively, you could use the **openvpn-pkcs12** format ''client.ovpn'' and ''client.p12'' files, place both the (''win7.ovpn'' and ''win7.p12'' in this example) files into the folder.

-That's it, next start the OpenVPN-GUI service.  This procedure can vary depending on your version of Windows.  The OpenVPN-GUI service __needs to have administrator permissions__ to add and delete routes and such. For the Windows7 case, right-click the OpenVPN-GUI icon and "Run as administrator".
+Next, you are ready to connect to your OpenVPN server, right-click on the OpenVPN task in the system tray:
