    37 The compression feature in OpenVPN is dynamic and by using the `--compress` or `--comp-lzo` options, the wire protocol used between the OpenVPN clients and server changes slightly, to encapsulate packets in what is referred to a ''compression frame''.  This does not mean data this frame carries is always compressed, but it *might* be compressed, all depending on a flag in the frame header.

    3939It is important to remember that `--comp-lzo` or `--compress` must be used on both the local and the remote side.  If only one side uses any of these options, it will not be a functional VPN tunnel.  Further, `--comp-lzo` and `--compress` have overlapping feature support, meaning that `--compress lzo` is identical to `--comp-lzo yes`or `--comp-lzo adaptive`.
