Description (last modified by )
The last line reads as:
"It should be emphasized that this feature is optional and that the key file used with --tls-auth gives a peer nothing more than the power to initiate a TLS handshake. It is not used to encrypt or authenticate any tunnel data."
I think we could change it to say:
"It should be emphasized that this feature is optional and that the key file used with --tls-auth gives a peer nothing more than the power to initiate a TLS handshake. It is not used to encrypt or authenticate any tunnel data. Use --tls-crypt if you want to use the key file as a static key to encrypt the TLS channel instead"
