      • AddonHost: addon-<tenant-URL>.

      • UserEmail: <Your email address>

    7. Click the checkbox to select the option Enable VPN On Demand.

    2. Click Select > Upload.

    3. Click Upload Certificate > Choose File to select and upload the certificates to Jamf. You can upload the root certificate first and then click the + icon to upload the intermediate certificate and repeat steps b and c.
