Set  "Encryption algorithm (fallback)" to NONE
and set in  Advanced:
--cipher AES-256-CBC

With Update 23.1.4 you can use again: "Encryption algorithm (deprecated)"
Restart openvpn server an it works

HI,

With Update OPNsense 23.1.4
" openvpn: reintroduce "cipher" keyword for older clients "

Now it works without my workaround.

Virtual private networks / Re: OpenVPN Client stopped working after recent update

So OpenVPN doesn't translate its own deprecations? What OpenVPN version is used on the client end?

For Test reasons I used an old Client (Sophos SSL) ist based on OpenVPN 2.3.8

With OpenVPN connect Client 3.3.6 it will use 'cipher AES-256-GCM' (with set  Encryption algorithm (fallback) to 'AES-256-CBC') an the connection works.

I think the Server setting 'Encryption algorithm (fallback)' don't work correct.

Kind rgds,
Chris

HI,

here the same.
After Update 23.1 to 23.1.3 openvpn stop work.
Failure Log:
 PUSH: No common cipher between server and client. Server data-ciphers: 'AES-256-GCM:AES-128-GCM', client supports cipher 'AES-256-CBC'
Log on Windows Client:
WARNING: 'cipher' is present in local config but missing in remote config, local='cipher AES-256-CBC'

I think the Problem is this in the changelog for Version 23.1.3
openvpn: replace authentication handler to prepare for upcoming OpenVPN 2.6 with deferred authentication
openvpn: rename -cipher option to --data-ciphers-fallback and adjust GUI accordingly


The Bug ist here:
openVPn Server Config:
" Encryption algorithm (fallback)   " dosn't work.


My work around:
Set  "Encryption algorithm (fallback)" to NONE
and set in  Advanced:
--cipher AES-256-CBC


With this setting my clients can reconnect and it works!
