OpenConnect 7.04 release

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This release is all about compression.

LZS and LZ4 compression are now supported on both the CSTP (TCP) channel
*and* the DTLS (UDP) channel. The current Cisco ASAs support LZS, and
ocserv 0.9.0 supports both.

Deflate compression on the CSTP channel is now disabled by default,
because of concerns about stateful compression allowing information
leaks. It can be enabled at runtime with '--compression=all'.

This looks like it will be the last release of OpenConnect which doesn't
support the Juniper SSL VPN.
