Details - Lede lacks the **PKCS11-HELPER** package which - along with **CCID, PCSC and OPENSC** - provides full-fledged support for security hardware tokens (eg.: smart cards).
This library enables OpenVPN to read IDs and private keys from a smart card and thus firing the VPN with two factor authentication.
In the embedded world this opens quite a lot of possibilities: imagine an OpenVPN-powered prepaid video streaming service.
Hope this practical application will raise interest in this otherwise obscure piece of software.
Regards,
Francesco Talarico
