Research direction
Reproduce the listed workflow by creating a template, adding an OpenVPN configuration, selecting server routed, preparing a sample config, and saving it. Trace the validation path for this configuration to identify why saving is rejected. Done means a valid server-routed template saves successfully and the regression is covered by an appropriate test.
