Hello Antonio,

A few questions wrt the API:

What's the expected behavior if REMOTE_PORT isn't provided? We'll send
packets do port 0 (which I'm guessing will get dropped on the other
side) until we get a message from the peer and float sets the correct
port/address?

Should we interpret OVPN_A_PEER_KEEPALIVE_INTERVAL = 0 &&
OVPN_A_PEER_KEEPALIVE_TIMEOUT == 0 as "disable keepalive/timeout" on
an active peer?  And maybe "one set to 0, the other set to some
non-zero value" as invalid?  Setting either value to 0 doesn't seem
very useful (timeout = 0 will probably kill the peer immediately, and
I suspect interval = 0 would be quite spammy).
