/**
* @defgroup reliable Reliability Layer module
*
* The Reliability Layer is part of OpenVPN's control channel. It
* provides a reliable and sequential transport mechanism for control
* channel messages between OpenVPN peers. This module forms the
* interface between the \link external_multiplexer External
* Multiplexer\endlink and the \link control_tls Control Channel TLS
* module\endlink.
*
* @par UDP or TCP as VPN tunnel transport
*
* This is especially important when OpenVPN is configured to communicate
* over UDP, because UDP does not offer a reliable and sequential
* transport. OpenVPN endpoints can also communicate over TCP which does
* provide a reliable and sequential transport. In both cases, using UDP
* or TCP as an external transport, the internal Reliability Layer is
* active.
