R7000 Nighthawk OpenVPN Enter Management Password:

Hey guys,

 

Trying to set up a VPN through the router. My issue is when I connect I get a Enter Management Password: in the log. I do not know what to do. Also how do I get that other error resolved? Any help?

 

Config File:

client
dev tap
proto udp
sndbuf 393216
rcvbuf 393216
push "sndbuf 393216"
push "rcvbuf 393216"
