/**

|
|
*
|
|
* The Reliability Layer is part of OpenVPN's control channel. It
|
|
* provides a reliable and sequential transport mechanism for control
|
|
* channel messages between OpenVPN peers. This module forms the
|
|
* interface between the \link external_multiplexer External
|
|
* Multiplexer\endlink and the \link control_tls Control Channel TLS
|
|
* module\endlink.
|
|
*
|
|
* @par UDP or TCP as VPN tunnel transport
|
|
*
|
|
* This is especially important when OpenVPN is configured to communicate
|
|
* over UDP, because UDP does not offer a reliable and sequential
|
|
* transport. OpenVPN endpoints can also communicate over TCP which does
|
|
* provide a reliable and sequential transport. In both cases, using UDP
|
|
* or TCP as an external transport, the internal Reliability Layer is
|
|
* active.
