Windows client VPN connection without FortiClient?

Hello everybody, is there any way to get a Windows client to connect to a VPN on a Fortigate, without having to install/use the FortiClient? Thanks and kind regards, F.

yes, you can use PPTP or L2TP. These are configured in CLI only. Have a look at either the FortiOS Handbook, the KB or the forums for working examples.
