      My Issue:
      I want to connect to an OpenVPN server to SSH into a device. Typically, I would use an .ovpn configuration file to establish the connection, but I can't seem to find an option in PFSense to generate or export the .ovpn configuration file for this OpenVPN server.

      Key Question:
      How can I generate or retrieve an .ovpn configuration file from PFSense for connecting to this OpenVPN server? Is there something I might be missing? I’ve checked the OpenVPN Client Export Utility, but it doesn’t list the specific OpenVPN server instance I’m trying to use.

      Additional Info:
      The VPN server is listed, as shown in the OpenVPN Servers section of PFSense.
