This avoid OpenVPN server being abused for refelection attacks in a large scale as we gotten a lot more efficient with the cookie approach in our initial connection approach. The defaults of 100 attempts per 10s should work for most people, esepcially since completed three way handshakes are not counted. So the default will throttle connection attempts on server with high packet loss or that are actually under a DOS. The 100 per 10s are similar in size to the old 2.5 and earlier behaviour where every initial connection attempt would take up a slot of the max-clients sessions and those would only expire after the TLS timeout. This roughly translates to 1024 connection attempts in 60s on an empty server. OpenVPN will announce once per period when starting dropping packets and ultimatively how many packets it dropped: Connection Attempt Note: --connect-freq-initial 100 10 rate limit exceeded, dropping initial handshake packets for the next 10 seconds Connection Attempt Dropped 217 initial handshake packets due to --connect-freq-initial 100 10 to inform an amdin about the consequence of this feature. Patch v2: use strtol instead of atoi to be able to differentiate between an error parsing and parsing 0. Use int64_t instead int to avoid overflow errors. Patch v3: Add message when we start dropping. Add a few fixes to the logic. improve docs Patch v4: missing missing return statement.
