Connect to home network from ipad

johng

Hi all,
Happy Holidays.
I use to be a system admin and now I am a tennis teaching professional. I want to be able to access all my videos and photos I create and others from the internet. I have set up open media vault on a pi3 and I installed the OpenVPN plugin. I am using the Apple Time capsule AC as my router. There is no VPN pass through option on the router. I set up port forwarding to port 1191. I can only port forward to an address on my current IP4 subnet.
So what else do I need to setup. On the iPad I can setup VPN AS IKEv2, IPSec, or l2TP. How do I setup OpenVPN on my Pi and which setting do I use on my iPad Pro?
I have the address of the public ip of the apple router, and ip of the Pi. But I still can not connect.

Thank,
John Gerard
