I have now added the command like this:

log /etc/openvpn/log/ovpn_local.log
#In order to add timestamps to log messages:
machine-readable-output
verb 4


But the result is disappointing:

1705839052.969032 1 217.213.75.168:15952 peer info:
IV_GUI_VER=net.openvpn.connect.android_3.3.4-9290

The quote above shows the timestamp as: 2024-01-21 03:06:59 which is what I
want.

What can I do to get the timestamp in the same format as that?
