Description

Currently the OpenVPN text reads:
EXAMPLE: push "route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0"

This should be updated to
EXAMPLE: push "route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 vpn_gateway 0"

In OpenVPN the vpn_gateway is automatically resolved to the gateway address.

The above change is necessary for example in the following network:

pfsense net: 10.0.0.0/24
openvpn net: 172.16.1.0/24
Advanced Options: push "route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 vpn_gateway 0"
Remote IP Range from which we connect to pfsense: 10.0.0.0/24

With the current example without the vpn_gateway and the metric, all traffic will still be routed to the remote ip range. Providing the additional 2 parameters makes the remote 10.0.0.0/24 routeable.

I would do the change on my own but I do not know how to update all the translations which also contain this example.
