Can OpenVPN bypass firewall?

A VPN can be used to bypass a proxy server or firewall and prevent your computer from being directed to a site it doesn't want to visit. This action provides an additional measure of security for anyone using a public Wi-Fi connection or any other unfamiliar network.

Can I use port 443 for OpenVPN?

As port TCP 443 is used for HTTPS traffic, which is used by many websites by default, having an OpenVPN TCP daemon on port TCP 443 makes it so it's more likely an OpenVPN client program on a restricted network can still make a connection to Access Server using the TCP fallback.

Should OpenVPN be TCP or UDP?

The OpenVPN protocol itself functions best over just the UDP protocol. And by default the connection profiles that you can download from the Access Server are preprogrammed to always first try UDP, and if that fails, then try TCP.

Why is port 80 and 443 open?

As the internet evolves toward more secure access, port 443 (HTTPS) will be the most common port for web traffic.
