Is there a way to build a VPN 'provider' for Android? A way to add new VPN types to the existing VPN infrastructure? OpenVPN, for instance, though also things like pppoe might fit in this category.
Android VPN optionsAndroid includes a built-in (PPTP, L2TP/IPSec, and IPSec) VPN client. Devices running Android 4.0 and later also support VPN apps. You might need a VPN app (instead of built-in VPN) for the following reasons: To configure the VPN using an enterprise mobility management (EMM) console.
Overview. VPNs allow devices that aren't physically on a network to securely access the network. Android includes a built-in (PPTP and L2TP/IPSec) VPN client, which is sometimes called legacy VPN. Android 4.0 (API Level 14) introduced APIs so that app developers could provide their own VPN solutions.
Disabling a VPN Using Third-Party Software If you're using a Windows, Mac, Android, or iOS VPN, simply launch the VPN software and click, tap, or toggle the same button you used to enable it. The button might read Disconnect, Turn Off, or Stop, or it might just be a power icon. Regardless, the purpose is the same.
VPN client API is available with android 4.0
The vpnManager does not provide an interface to add new type of VPN. I saw some OpenVPN implementation in Android, but all require a rooted device. http://android.modaco.com/content/software/291919/openvpn-on-android/
