    107107This will allow older clients to add or change `--cipher` to use `AES-256-CBC` instead of the default `BF-CBC` or any other cipher enlisted.  This can be done on client configuration files on a one-by-one approach.  Unmodified clients will be able to connect as before.  Once all clients have been updated to OpenVPN v2.4 or later (preferred) or have their configuration altered, the `--ncp-ciphers` list can be modified to remove `BF-CBC`.
