Hopefully. If anyone has more info, please share!

I needed an encrypted back-end link between several servers, so that even if
any set of them goes down, encrypted comms keep working between all of the
rest.

OpenVPN felt more like client-server thingy, more slated towards a star

But I might be missing something here, so again, comments welcome.
