+----------------------------------------------
+Provides support for external storage of the certificate. Requires the
+--management-external-cert option. This option can be used instead of "cert"
+in client mode. On SSL protocol initialization a notification will be sent
+to the management interface with a hint as follows:
+
+>NEED-CERTIFICATE:macosx-keychain:subject:o=OpenVPN-TEST
+
+The management interface client should use the hint to obtain the specific
+SSL certificate and then return base64 encoded certificate as follows:
