The interface probably suspends and openvpn exits? Brings up an interesting question: should power events be handled by openvpn or by the UI or in a service that starts it (if relevant)? My view: although openvpn need not directly handle power events, if an interface driver notifies that it wants to suspend, it should respond to it appropriately by restarting after a pause, for example. On windows, our workaround for a long time was for the GUI to suspend/restart openvpn on power events, though we changed that a while ago to put the onus of restarting back on to openvpn. But one could argue that its the job of the process starting openvpn to respawn it if needed, instead of making it handle all kinds of failure scenarios... Any thoughts on which is a better approach?
