openvpn export has different format (<cert></cert> and <key></key> block is gone)

[hiac]

Hello,

I purchased TM-AC1900 router, and flash to Merlin (380.65) by following this url:
https://slickdeals.net/f/9071711-t-...free-ship-asus-rt-ac68u?src=SiteSearchV2Algo1

I configured openvpn (server 1, Interface Type=TUN, Protocol=UDP, Cipher Negotiation=Enabled (with fallback)). here is my setting.

I then exported .ovpn profile file, and configure my windows laptop, iphone without problem. that's about 1 months ago, and the format of the export client.ovpn has this format:


client
dev tun
proto udp
remote xx 1194
float
ncp-ciphers AES-128-GCM:AES-256-GDM:AES-128-CBC:AES-256-CBC
cipher AES-128-CBC
comp-lzo adaptive
keepalive 15 60
auth-user-pass
ns-cert-type server
<ca>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
xxx
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</ca>
<cert>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
xxx
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</cert>
<key>
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
xxx
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----
</key>
resolv-retry infinite
nobind


Today, I ran another export from router, I noticed <cert></cert> and <key></key> block is gone. I didn't recall I made any change on router recently.

client
dev tun
proto udp
remote xx 1194
float
ncp-ciphers AES-128-GCM:AES-256-GDM:AES-128-CBC:AES-256-CBC
cipher AES-128-CBC
comp-lzo adaptive
keepalive 15 60
auth-user-pass
ns-cert-type server
<ca>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
xxx
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</ca>
resolv-retry infinite
nobind

can you help me out?
Thank you!

I had the same issue and clicked on default under the VPN Details tab. I reconfigured the settings and exported a new file and everything was there again. Not sure this is the only way but it worked for me.

Hello atkinsom,

Thank you very much for your reply.
I found the issue
I changed
Username / Password Auth. Only
from no to yes
at some point.

once I change it back, the .ovpn profile restore.

thank you again!
