Both IPv4 and IPv6 are learning on SSL VPN listen interfaces. To hide the IPv4 address in the SSL VPN setting and see only the IPv6 address, there is an option to set the listen interfaces, but no option to set a particular IP address as the gateway in the SSL VPN setting.


Note:

There is an option to set only in IPsec, but the SSL VPN does not have a remote gateway setting option.
