I am using an Asus ROG Rapture GT-AX11000 am on 338.2 and I am unable to start the OpenVPN client. The system log says

Apr 13 23:57:57 ovpn-client1[21976]: Options error: Unrecognized option or missing or extra parameter(s) in config.ovpn:42: keysize (2.6.2)
Apr 13 23:57:57 ovpn-client1[21976]: Use --help for more information.
Apr 13 23:57:57 openvpn: Starting OpenVPN client 1 failed!

- UPDATED: openvpn to 2.6.2. If your client fails to connect
then your custom settings must contain settings no
longer supported by OpenVPN 2.6. Review the System
Log, then remove unsupported settings that are
reported in your log.

What settings do I need to remove or change? Or do I need to downgrade the router firmware?
