Hi everybody,

I am looking for a way to configure my OpenVPN server running on my RT-AC68U to only accept connection attempts from a specific WAN IP address. Meaning, I would like it to not even entertain any data coming into it that's not from the specific address I configure. Is there a way to do this with OpenVPN, or even somewhere else in the router (firewall maybe?) to allow incoming connections to the port the OpenVPN server is listening on from just one IP address, and block all other traffic from other addresses?

Thanks :)
