Description
https://openvpn.net/faq/can-an-openvpn-server-push-proxy-settings-to-an-ios-device/
The article mentions that pushing a proxy works on iOS and I've managed to get it working on Android client.
Which OSes support this feature?
Looks like the default Ubuntu 20.04 openvpn client does not.
Thanks.
