OpenVPN config-file import

Feature requests

@syncer I assume this would work similar to the way that Ubiquity’s EdgeRouter works.

openvpn vtun0 {
    config-file "/config/auth/myClientConfig.ovpn"
}

Essentially, rather than having to tediously port over every single line of an .ovpn file, a VyOS admin should be able to simply specify a config-file key. This is much more intuitive, and since .ovpn files are used most often when configuring OpenVPN clients, it would save quite a bit of hassle.

Additionally, it provides consistency with other vyatta-forked routers.

I was hoping to configure a VPN client interface on VyOS this evening, but given the fact that I now have to, essentially, manually copy each line of my .ovpn makes for a much longer and more tedious task that I’ll need to post-pone.

I found this feature request after searching around for documentation on config-file in VyOS. I found a few related topics as well:
