I am connecting two LAN sections in different locations, both operating on fiber
connections. The OpenVPN server used runs on my home LAN and the remote LAN
connects by OpenVPN built into the ASUS RT-AC68U router using a specific user
ovpn file. This user has a ccd entry on the server to set up stuff on
connection.
This setup is described in my thread "Expected transfer speed LAN-LAN using
OpenVPN?"

Now I have found in the SNB forum that the cipher I use is not optimal for the
speed I want so I have changed the server side settings to modify the specifics
for this client in the ccd file:

iroute 192.168.117.0 255.255.255.0
#Disable compression and push it to the client
comp-lzo no
push "comp-lzo no"
#Set different cipher for the ASUS router client
cipher AES-128-GCM
push "cipher AES-128-GCM"

The problem I have is how to make this to be used since I assume the commands
are exchanged on connection by the remote site router to the home OpenVPN server
and I have no control over *when* this happens, presumably when it is powered
on. Hard to effctuate at 100 km distance...

So is there some action I can do on the OpenVPN server which will "reconnect"
the remote client using the new settings?
