How to check if Open VPN is working!

Hello everyone,

I have configured my ASUS GT-AX11000 router OpenVPN server and set up my QNAP NAS to use the server. I downloaded the Open VPN app for Mac and it seems that is connected to the server. The NAS seems to be connected too, I see it on the Open VPN connection status, besides this, what other way I can check to see if my QNAP NAS specifically is connected via Open VPN?

the best test is to try to reach your NAS when your OpenVPN client is connecting from outside your LAN.
Alternatively, you could check the system routing table and see if everything is set as you would expect, but the first test is just easier.
