Unstable: 386.03_1-gnuton0_alpha3

GNUton's Asus Merlin changelog

Date: July 11, 2021
Release: 386.03_1-gnuton0_alpha3

• NOTE: First time you boot into this version, you need to
  either shift-reload the main index page, or clear
  your browser cache.

• NEW: Introducing VPN Director, which replaces the original
  policy routing management interface for OpenVPN clients.
  A bit similar to Asus's own VPN Fusion, OpenVPN routing
  rules are now managed through a central web interface,
  and they are stored in JFFS instead of nvram, to allow
  creating more rules, and free up some nvram for
  nvram-limited devices such as the RT-AC68U.
  See the Wiki for more information.

• NEW: Added QR codes to the networkmap as well as the Guest
  Network page, to allow easily connecting a mobile
  device just by scanning the QR code.
  The generated QR code can also be saved as a file
  if you'd like to print it.

• CHANGED: Rewrote OpenVPN routing handling. The firmware will
  now handle route creation itself rather than letting
  the openvpn client create/remove routes.
  The new implementation brings a few changes:

       - "Force Internet traffic through tunnel" can now
         be set to "No", "Yes (All)" or "VPN Director".
       - This setting will now override whatever setting
         pushed by the server regarding gateway redirection.
       - The kill switch can now be used in both "Yes" and
         "VPN Director" routing modes
       - Manually stopping a client will remove the kill
         switch.  It will now only be applied at boot time
         (if client was set to start at boot), or if the
         tunnel is disconnected through a non-user event
  

• CHANGED: Reworked OpenVPN's DNS Exclusive mode implementation
  and interaction with dnsmasq.

• CHANGED: Moved OpenVPN Custom settings content to JFFS, and
  increased max storage length from around 350 chars
  to 4095 chars.

• UPDATED: nano to 5.7.

• UPDATED: curl to 7.76.1.

• UPDATED: dnsmasq to 2.85-openssl.

• UPDATED: openvpn to 2.5.3.
