Export Configuration from OpenVPN Server on Asus Router for ChromeBook?

wingsfan87

Any good help with converting the .ovpn file that is generated from the OpenVPN server on my Asus router to be able to be used on my ChromeBook?

I found this https://syedali.net/2014/02/17/using-chromebook-to-connect-to-an-openvpn-server/ however not much help in generating the pks12 file though from the Asus router as I only have a GUI interface with exporting the .ovpn file.

I can SSH into my Asus router but I'm not sure what to run command line wise to export it as I would need it to be able to import it into the Chromebook. According to the link I need the ca.crt with private key and the client cert with the private key to import into the Chromebook.

Devices:
Router - RT-AC5300 | Latest Stock firmware 3.0.0.4.380_3941
OpenVPN Server built into stock firmware
ChromeBook - Acer C720P | running the latest stable build

Thanks

You can use easyrsa to create your entire PKI using a computer (Windows or Linux) and then upload the files to the devices as necessary.

This post details the exact use of each file:

You will then have the file necessary to create your PKCS12 client.p12 file and the certs and key you need
on your server.

I already have the .ovpn file. How can I do a conversion on that? I don't want to regenerate and I'm not sure how to get easyrsa. Doing some searching I couldn't find the actual download. I only have a Windows 10 PC and no Linux etc..

. I want to be able to export from the OpenVPN server using SSH/SCP the configurations but I'm not sure on the commands.
