I'm not seeing a Dial Out option. Is this supported? (Running latest firmware)

So I have this menu, but it appears it's dial-in openvpn only. (Server), the client tab appears to be client config for the server. There doesn't appear to be a way to connect to another openvpn server. It doesn't list openvpn in lan2lan

I'd like to clarify about this feature - Dial-Out OpenVPN is exclusive to the new Vigor 2865 & Vigor 2927 routers, which afaik added it with 4.2.2 firmware. New enough that the spec pages don't list it as a feature yet :)

Dial-Out OpenVPN can be found under the LAN to LAN VPN profiles, where it's listed as a Dial-Out / Dial-In protocol.

I don't think this feature will be available on the Vigor 2862 / older routers - usually this is down to memory constraints, where adding in that feature would require the removal of other existing features.

OK, thanks for the confirmation, it's nice to know I wasn't going insane.
