Hello,

You can change the Address from the below config:
config vpn l2tp
set status enable
set eip 1.1.1.10     ------------------- > 
set sip 1.1.1.1    ------------------ >
set usrgrp "Guest-group"
end

Here 
*eip is End IP.
*sip is Start IP.

Best Regards.

Regards,
Vishal

ok, thanks

and how could I set other DNS that client receive other that assigned from Fortigate system DNS?

vsahu

Custom DNS servers are not supported with L2TP tunnels. Users connected via L2TP will always retrieve FortiGate system DNS servers

why if I do "set enforce-ipsec enable" in l2tp setting, then my l2tp connection is not connecting anymore, I would to be sure that this connection is always encrypted by ipsec tunnel?

vsahu


config vpn l2tp
set enforce-ipsec enable
end

This will enforce l2tp to use IPSec and you already created it on Fortigate. After making the above changes L2tp will only allow connection using the "L2TP/IPSec with pre-shared key" under the VPN settings on windows.

Make sure Pre-shared key is correct

Hi Team,

 

Can you test in this way, in foritgate enable "set enforce-ipsec enabled" and then in windows chose ipsec as "l2tp/ipsec" then test if its connecting or not

Yes, I didn't touch ipsec settings, with set enforce-ipsec disabled, connection is working once set to enabled it does not.

That suggests that your client might be using pure, !!! UNENCRYPTED !!!, L2TP. This would be a pretty bad idea, as pure L2TP doesn't really provide any security. ("set enforce-ipsec enable" refuses plain L2TP and mandates its encapsulation in IPsec)

 

You can try confirming that by making a packet capture of the client's traffic.

If it's UDP ports 500/4500, then that's IKE negotiations, meaning they're using IPsec with presumably L2TP inside afterwards. If it's UDP/1701, then that's plaintext L2TP (bad).

[ corrections always welcome ]

you might have to convert it to a custom tunnel because otherwise there is various options you don't see in gui. Just fyi.
