Question

What client do I use with IPSec Dial Up VPN

Hi Forum

I'm writing about migrating from SSLVPN to IPSecVPN Dial Up as the SSLVPN is deprecated in version 7.4.3.

I have looked online and found alot of resources regarding building the IPSec Dailup but nothing about what client one should use.

My question is, what client does the end user use with the IPSec Dialup - is it the same as the SSLVPN client or is a different one?
If it is the same, does the client need to be configured to use IPSec Dialup?

Thanks!

John

Hi ,

For your query here is answer , like  IPsec VPN dial-up connections, you can use the FortiClient as the dial-up client. It is the same client used for SSL VPN connections.

Hi Knaveen

 

Thanks so much. I can see it. When the client uses this, will they need to enter both a psk their SSO credentials?

 

I'm trying to understand the client experience as much as possible.

 

Kind Regards


John
