O que o DumbMonit vigia
OpenVPN's server process exposes its own control channel, the management interface: a local TCP listener, separate from the VPN itself, made for a monitoring tool rather than for a VPN client. DumbMonit reads it like any management client: the server's version, whether it reports itself connected, and every client currently in session, with its real and virtual address and its traffic. Nothing is ever sent that would change the server's state or disconnect a client. Clients are transient by nature — a laptop that goes to sleep simply disappears from the next reading. DumbMonit does not try to remember who was connected five minutes ago; it reports only who is connected now, plus the client…
