Is there any documentation where I can setup my devices where I can connect to 2 openvpn servers:

- 1 EC2 server hosting openvpn server which all devices are connected to
- 1 Pritunl OpenVPN server which I’m trying to have them connect to

Anytime I try connecting with my Pritunl server to my device it times out and crashes where nobody is able to `ssh` into it.

Attempting to run a VPN client on the Pritunl server will likely cause issues with the routing table. This should instead be done with a site-to-site system such as [**Pritunl Link**](https://docs.pritunl.com/kb/vpn/link/link-configuration) or VPC peering.

Would the idea be to use `pritunl-link` to connect all my devices (i.e. raspberry pis) and move to the new pritunl openvpn server?

I’m confused in the response. Pretty much the idea is to migrate from our old openvpn server to our new Pritunl openvpn server. We are just stuck on the best way of doing this.

If you are trying to get multiple VPN connections on the Pritunl client there shouldn’t be any issues doing that. If something is crashing check the logs in the top right of the server web console or the top right menu of the client.
