In case of Android, its only sent to the management, right? As the man
page is about
OpenVPN core, I would say the current statement that the option is
handled only on

But its useful to expand on the usage on other platforms. I can add a
line about scripts in OS
distributions and front-ends/UI like Android that can transparently handle it.
