The OpenVPN pushes the ping 600 and ping-restart 1800 (as a result of the keepalive statement) perfectly fine to the client. Disconnect reason is as quick as 40 seconds after connection on idling, reason: Session invalidated: KEEPALIVE_TIMEOUT. That does not make sense to me.

Even though I was always active whether browsing, downloading a file, or watching a video, it would always show a disconnect with inactivity timeout.

If for example you are on your phone and you are connected through

Hi guys I am trying to have the VPN disconnect clients when inactive for over 10 minutes. I have googled a bit and found the manul for open vpn says to add the option inactive n where n is hte number of seconds to the server config.
