# Download a Host Connector's connection profile as a .ovpn file

Obtaining the connection profile for a Host Connector as a .ovpn file is useful if the server you want to connect to CloudConnexa already has an OpenVPN-compatible client, such as Network Attached Storage (NAS) equipment.

You can get the Connector's .ovpn file for an existing Host from the Connectors tab shown in the detailed view as shown in [View, make changes, and delete a Host](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/owner/hosts/hosts---hosts/view-make-changes-and-delete-a-host.md), or you can obtain it from the Connectors list as shown below:

1. Sign in to the CloudConnexa Administration Portal using your WPC's **Cloud ID** address (for example, `yourcompany.openvpn.com`).
2. Navigate to **Hosts \> Connectors**.
3. Click the **Deploy**  button for the Connector from the list.
4. Select **Download Profile in .ovpn format** from the drop-down menu.

   The connection profile will be downloaded and saved in the web browser's default download directory.
