How do you mean 'create users'? As in to only VPN traffic from a particular user on a PC?

I want to restrict certain user in accessing part of the home network. So make profile with seperate user accounts

The OpenVPN service on the XR1000 can only be connected to by a device that you actively use a VPN client on, so a device can only be connected or disconnected from the VPN service. There is no way to specify users on the OpenVPN service.

So the setup file has the security layer build in or should I turn off vpn everytime I dont use it
