Where to copy openvpn files?

Hi,

 

I'm currently running a VPN sever on my Synology NAS and it works relatively well. I use it to connect home from outside with various clients (laptops, Android phones, etc.) - no site-to-site connection.

 

However, I'd prefer that my router handle the VPN instead of my NAS behind the router. I have already generated the server and each client fil, with some specific settings that should (according to the blogs I read years ago) increase security. Here is the list of my server files (I added "custom" to the names to avoid them being overwritten with the default ones when my Synlogy NAS updates the VPN Server package - but it doesn't work since they wipe the folder):

- caCustom.crt

- dh4096.pem

- serverCustom.crt

- serverCustom.key

- taCustom.key

 

For each client, I have:

- caCustom.crt

- Laptop1.crt

- Laptop1.csr

- Laptop1.key

- taCustom.key

- Laptop1.ovpn

 

I'm assuming I can simply copy the server files (as is) in a directory on the router, and then "create the tunnel" (??). Reading the tutorial here, I am not sure entirely certain of the way to proceed since I already have the files.

 

Can someone indicate where I would need to copy the files and what I need to do to get the server going/listening?

 

Thanks
