## Download FIPS140-3 version

{false && (

<Note>
  This FIPS 140-3 client cannot connect to FIPS 140-2 gateways on Controller
  8.2 and earlier (those controllers use an OpenVPN version below 2.6). Use
  the FIPS 140-2 client below instead for Controller 8.2 and earlier.
</Note>
)}

<Note>
  The FIPS 140-3 build cannot connect to VPN gateways whose UserVPN CA uses an
  RSA 1024-bit key. This affects gateways on Controller versions earlier than
  8.2, and gateways on Controller 8.2 whose UserVPN CA has not been rotated
  since upgrade. To use this client, rotate the UserVPN CA to at least RSA
  2048-bit. See{" "}
