OpenVPN 2.6.15 has been released today as the latest stable version of this open-source VPN (Virtual Private Network) system for creating secure point-to-point or site-to-site connections in routed or bridged configurations.

The OpenVPN 2.6.15 release brings back support for explicitly configuring the broadcast address on Linux systems, on interfaces where applicable. This feature was removed from the OpenVPN 2.6 series because “computers are smart and can do it themselves”.
