R7000 VPN Site to Site with OpenWRT Router

I am attempting to create a site to site VPN connection with my Netgear Nighthawk R7000 Router where the Netgear Router is the Server (192.168.1.1), and an OpenWRT router is a client (192.168.2.1).  ...

    We do not support site to site OpenVPN configuration. The R7000 OpenVPN implementation is only for server to client configurations.

Hi NYMetsFan

 

Welcome to the community!

 

Can you provide a network diagram of your network setup?

My understanding of Site-To-Site VPN is that there will be two VPN routers, one in each remote site. 

R7000 is not considered a VPN router but a VPN passthrough router.
