123 | | The `--comp-lzo` option would only enable the LZO compression algorithm. The `--compress` option allows also to use the improved LZ4 algorithm instead. Providing just `--compress` without an algorithm is the equivalent of `--comp-lzo no` which disables compression but enables the packet framing for compression. This will allow `--compress` to be pushed by the server on a per-client basis. |

| 126 | Contrary to prior statements `--comp-lzo no` is not compatible with the `--compress` counterpart. Therefore openvpn needs to keep supporting `--comp-lzo no` for backward compatibility. |
