OpenVPN-Monitor is a simple python program to generate html that displays the status of an OpenVPN server, including all current connections. It uses the OpenVPN management console. It typically runs on the same host as the OpenVPN server, however it does not necessarily need to.
The current source code is available on github:
https://github.com/furlongm/openvpn-monitor
mkdir /srv/openvpn-monitor
cd /srv/openvpn-monitor
virtualenv .
. bin/activate
pip install openvpn-monitor gunicorn
gunicorn openvpn-monitor -b 0.0.0.0:80
apt-get -y install python-geoip python-ipaddr python-humanize python-bottle apache2 libapache2-mod-wsgi git wget
a2enmod wsgi
echo "WSGIScriptAlias /openvpn-monitor /var/www/html/openvpn-monitor/openvpn-monitor.py" > /etc/apache2/conf-available/openvpn-monitor.conf
a2enconf openvpn-monitor
systemctl restart apache2yum install -y epel-release
yum makecache
yum install -y python-GeoIP python-ipaddr python-humanize python-bottle httpd mod_wsgi git wget
echo "WSGIScriptAlias /openvpn-monitor /var/www/html/openvpn-monitor/openvpn-monitor.py" > /etc/httpd/conf.d/openvpn-monitor.conf
systemctl restart apache2cd /var/www/html
git clone https://github.com/furlongm/openvpn-monitor.gitAdd the following line to your OpenVPN server configuration to run the management console on 127.0.0.1 port 5555:
management 127.0.0.1 5555
Refer to the OpenVPN documentation for further information on how to secure access to the management interface.
cd /usr/share/GeoIP/
wget http://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLiteCity.dat.gz
gunzip GeoLiteCity.dat.gz
mv GeoLiteCity.dat GeoIPCity.datThe example configuration file /var/www/html/openvpn-monitor/openvpn-monitor.conf
should give some indication of how to set site name, add a logo, etc. You can
also set a default location (latitude and longitude) for the embedded maps.
If not set, the default location is Melbourne, Australia.
Edit /var/www/html/openvpn-monitor/openvpn-monitor.conf to match your site.
You should now be able to navigate to http://myipaddress/openvpn-monitor
OpenVPN-Monitor can be run from the command line in order to test if the html generates correctly:
cd /var/www/html/openvpn-monitor
