🚀 #OpenVPN 2.7.1 is here!

Running rock-solid on #FreeBSD — and guess what? It works flawlessly on pure INET6-only hosts, no INET needed 💥

Thinking about going #ipv6only ? This is your sign. FreeBSD makes it clean, simple, and powerful.

Time to level up your network stack 🔥#IPv6

@mzar @tschaefer Heeeey this topic just came up this morning — so the IPv4-less FreeBSD build *is* still around?

I hadn't really heard much about it since it was originally announced, so I wasn't sure if it was a maintained thing or a one-time proof-of-concept that might have fallen too far out of sync with the current networking code.

Thanks in advance!

FreeBSD is a very flexible operating system—you can build it without IPv4, without IPv6, or even (though I haven’t tested it) without both. It’s not just a proof of concept; it actually works as expected.

The most significant issue used to be that wpa_supplicant didn’t work without INET (IPv4) support, but that was fixed about a year ago.
