Always On VPN DPC Commercial Support

The Always On VPN Dynamic Profile Configurator (DPC) is a free, open-source solution that helps administrators deploy and manage Always On VPN client configuration settings using Active Directory, Group Policy, or Microsoft Intune. Since version 5.0, DPC has been publicly available and widely adopted. Until now, support has been limited to the community Discord channel. Many organizations, however, require formal support before they can deploy software, even open-source solutions. To meet this need, Leo D’Arcy and I are now offering a commercial support option for DPC.

Why Commercial Support Matters

Enterprises rely on accountability and timely assistance to ensure business-critical services run smoothly. Open source provides flexibility and cost savings, but it often lacks the reliability guarantees companies require. Commercial support bridges that gap—delivering confidence, faster resolutions, and compliance with internal support standards.

Customer Success Story

A UK National Health Service (NHS) Trust, an early customer of the support program, praised the impact of DPC on its remote access strategy. An infrastructure engineer at the NHS trust has this to say about DPC and commercial support:

“We have recently transitioned from SSL VPN to AOVPN and took the opportunity to use DPC to manage our configuration and deployment. We’ve previously experimented with Microsoft’s officially documented process, but DPC really simplifies and streamlines the implementation and management of the AOVPN tunnels.

During rollout, we discovered an issue that caused the user tunnel config to become corrupt. Being able to directly communicate and troubleshoot with Leo and the team meant that we were quickly able to have a fix and a new version of the client ready for deployment.

We are now running DPC and AOVPN on around 4000 endpoints with around 2000 concurrent connections each day. Feedback from users is very positive, and DPC simplifies ongoing management.”

Value Added

This real-world experience highlights the two most significant benefits of DPC with commercial support: rapid issue resolution (direct access to the people who build the software) and confidence at scale (thousands of endpoints, thousands of daily connections).

What DPC Commercial Support Includes

Purchasing a commercial support package provides:

  • 1 year of support services (renewable)
  • Direct access to Leo D’Arcy, lead developer of DPC
  • Support from Richard Hicks for DPC-related queries
  • Enhanced troubleshooting beyond community channels
  • Prioritized bug fixes
  • Early consideration for new feature requests
  • Dedicated private channels for secure communication

Don’t Wait

With a commercial support package, your organization gains expert guidance, faster issue resolution, and direct access to the team that builds and maintains DPC. DPC commercial support ensures smooth deployments, reduced risks, and compliance with internal support requirements

Always On VPN DPC 5.2.0 Now Available

I’m pleased to announce that Always On VPN Dynamic Profile Configurator (DPC) version 5.2.0 is now available. My good friend Leo D’Arcy has been hard at work for the last few months squashing some bugs and adding a few new features to DPC. If you are running a previous release of Always On VPN DPC, either open source or commercial, it’s time to upgrade.

Important!! DPC 5.2.0 has a bug that prevents the service from stopping. This has been addressed in DPC 5.2.1. Guidance for upgrading from DPC 5.2.0 to 5.2.1 can be found here.

Reminder: We’re on Discord. Join the conversation today!

What’s New in DPC 5.2.0

Always On VPN DPC 5.2.0 has some compelling new features.

  • Exclude Routes from DNS – DPC has a feature that allows administrators to add routes to the routing table using DNS. When this setting is enabled, DPC will attempt to resolve the specified hostname to an IP address and add it to the VPN’s routing table when creating the profile. With 5.2.0, this capability has been extended to exclusion routes, allowing administrators to exclude resources by host name.
  • Write Event Logs to Disk – This setting allows administrators to optionally write DPC event information to a text file in addition to logging them in the event log. Writing event log information to a text file on disk can make troubleshooting easier in some scenarios.
  • Delay Profile Updates – This new feature ensures reliable VPN profile creation after group policy updates take place.

Bug Fixes

In addition to new capabilities, Always On VPN DPC 5.2.0 includes fixes for many outstanding issues.

  • DPC name resolution issue where duplicate IP addresses are returned, resulting in failed route additions when using ‘Allow Routes from DNS’.
  • Missing events in the DPC operational event log.
  • Enabling ‘Disable Disconnect Button’ or ‘Disable Advanced Edit Button’ settings results in a profile mismatch warning.
  • Added resiliency to DPC name resolution when one or more name resolution requests fail.

Group Policy Template

As a reminder, any time there are new features in DPC, there will be corresponding changes to Group Policy administrative template and template language files. Be sure to update your ADMX and ADML files in the group policy central store to take advantage of these new capabilities in DPC 5.2.0.

Recommendation

If you are running any release of Always On VPN DPC, commercial or open source, consider upgrading now to gain access to new features and operational reliability improvements. You can find DPC v5.2.0 on GitHub here.
