The VPN server will always provide an IP address to the remote VPN client. VPN
clients can behave in two different ways.
Either:
the VPN client requests an IP address. Then the VPN server responds to this
request, and provides a suitable IP address.
Or:
The VPN client does not issue a request for an IP address. In this case, the VPN
server pushes an IP address to the VPN client. The client acknowledges the receipt
of the IP address.
push_ip

Specifies the netmask provided to the client. Either the dotted decimal format can
be used, or an integer between 0 and 32 can be entered.
Examples:
255.255.255.0
