I am trying to change Openvpn default port from 1194 to 8080

I change port 1194 to port 8080 on server.conf at server and change the client config file like that

remote 15.15.15.15 8080

then I restart openvpn but does not work.

I also use this code for opening the port 8080 on firewall d

CODE: SELECT ALL

firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=8080/udp --permanent
firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=8080/tcp --permanent

but still connection doesn't work :( :( :( :(

In your config file its 8080 port but in your firewall you wrote 8070. – Nazia Jahan Trisha Jan 31 '20 at 10:46
Please be more specific about the `doesn't work` part. What's the exact error message you receive? – Gerald Schneider Jan 31 '20 at 14:48
i used [firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=8070/udp --permanent] for test 8070 port but thats not works too – Ali Jafary Jan 31 '20 at 22:04
doesn't work i mean when i change the port of server.conf to port 1194 and then restart openvpn and firewall thats works as well but when i change the port to another port there is no connection anymore!? – Ali Jafary Jan 31 '20 at 22:12
