[opensuse-support] How start VPN automatically?
Hi guys, In my machine all the network connection does not connect automatically. Except my VPN (openvpn), which has the connection.autoconnect: flag enabled: The nmcli connection show output: connection.id: VPN connection.uuid: 5e089af9-75ad-40a6-bc2c-a5541b538f38 connection.stable-id: -- connection.type: vpn connection.interface-name: -- connection.autoconnect: yes connection.autoconnect-priority: 0 connection.autoconnect-retries: 0 (forever) connection.auth-retries: -1 connection.timestamp: 1541556266 connection.read-only: no connection.permissions: user:myuser connection.zone: -- connection.master: -- connection.slave-type: -- connection.autoconnect-slaves: -1 (default) connection.secondaries: -- connection.gateway-ping-timeout: 0 connection.metered: unknown What I would like to do is connect the VPN automatically every time I connect to a network. How can I do that? Is the autoconnect flag enough for that? Nowadays I need to connect manually. Thanks!

The nmcli connection show output:
connection.id: VPN
connection.uuid: 5e089af9-75ad-40a6-bc2c-a5541b538f38
connection.stable-id: --
connection.type: vpn
connection.interface-name: --
connection.autoconnect: yes
connection.autoconnect-priority: 0
connection.autoconnect-retries: 0 (forever)
connection.auth-retries: -1
connection.timestamp: 1541556266
connection.read-only: no
connection.permissions: user:myuser
connection.zone: --
connection.master: --
connection.slave-type: --
connection.autoconnect-slaves: -1 (default)
connection.secondaries: --
connection.gateway-ping-timeout: 0
connection.metered: unknown
What I would like to do is connect the VPN automatically every time I connect to a network. How can I do that? Is the autoconnect flag enough for that?
To activate VPN NM needs to know its base "physical" connection. You define VPN connection which should then be activated in properties of "physical" connection. It is connection.secondaries property which refers to VPN connection(s). In GUI it is "Automatically connect to VPN when using this connection" in General tab.
Nowadays I need to connect manually.
Thanks!
