      Hello,

      After updating OpenVPN and the export plugin to the latest version, we have an issue exporting the configuration files:

      The server configurated cyphers are:

      • Encryption Algorithm: AES-256-CBC

      • Enable NCP: Enabled

      • NCP Algorithms: AES-128-GCM

      When we export a configuration file from this server, the parameters are:

      • data-ciphers AES-128-GCM

      • data-ciphers-fallback AES-256-CBC

      At connection time, the client (last version) shows the cipher negotiation failed, as i needed to add AES-256-CBC cipher to the configuration, because AES-128-GCM is not allowed.

      We can address the issue exporting the configuration files using the 2.4 OpenVPN version on the export, but it is not a proper fix for us,

      What should we do?

      Best Regards
