I've spent several hours understanding OpenVPN. It's the first time I've
dug into it, as I don't usually use VPNs.

The best info I found was on the OpenVPN site, Debian Wiki, and
Shorewall's OpenVPN documentation.

https://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html
https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/BridgingAndRouting
https://wiki.debian.org/OpenVPN
http://www.shorewall.net/OPENVPN.html

The Debian Wiki does not say anything about systemd. So it's a good
guide. However, I did find some things to vague. I had no idea what was
going on. Which is when I went to look for more info.
