--- Comment #1 from Gert Doering <g...@greenie.muc.de> ---
As discussed on IRC, there are good chances that this is MTU related.

If `mssfix` is in use, this will cap TCP packet size to "small enough so
outside UDP packets do not need to be fragmented".  This works both sides, so
it's enough if one end does `mssfix`.

As of today, kernel openvpn does not seem to support `mssfix`, so if *both*
ends use DCO, no MSS manipulations are done, and you need to reduce interface
MTU (`tun-mtu 1400`) to get the same effect.

Now, why outside fragmentation breaks with IPv6 is another of these questions -
it shouldn't break, it is tested here in my FreeBSD 14 / DCO test scenario, but
for example `pf(4)` needed to be told to leave IPv6 fragments alone in earlier
versions (not sure about 14).
