OpenVPN isn't found in FreeBSD 11 -- why?

Question

I'm trying to install OpenVPN on Freebsd 11, but it says it's not found:

# pkg install openvpn
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
FreeBSD repository is up-to-date.
All repositories are up-to-date.
pkg: No packages available to install matching 'openvp' have been found in the repositories

And

uname -a
FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p1

How can I install it?

Use the correct package name, you appear to be trying to install a package called openvp

pkg install openvp ... pkg: No packages available to install matching 'openvp'

You want to try

pkg install openvpn

surely.
