You may need an OpenVPN client certificate and client key to connect to the OpenVPN server on the NAS. You can download the certificate and key with the following process:

Sign in QTS with an admin account.
Open the Control Panel.
Go to System > Security > SSL Certificate & Private Key.
Note
In earlier versions of QTS, this may instead be located in the Certificate & Private Key tab.
Click Download certificate.

The system prepares a zip file containing the client certificate and client key. You can unzip this file on your local device.
