Public bug reported: Valid IPv4 route configuration (in openvpn text configuration) is without gateway (route is going to the tunnel, so next hop is not required), eg: route 192.168.32.0 255.255.240.0
This valid configuration works when is imported by nmcli (open VPN tunnel by nmcli or GUI). But configuration cannot be saved by GUI (and thus not saved after import), because GUI require filled Gateway. Use unfilled Gateway is very useful during openvpn readressing or changing pools etc. When Gateway is filled, then any changes is often required also all on clients. Ps. Sending routes from OVPN server is not implemented on Mikrotik (my case). Gateway fields.
