"Allow access from the specified nodes." What is this?

Hi John Woodall 

The following options for login restrictions are available: 

• Any Node: The User can log in from any node in the network.
• User Group Node(s): If a user belongs to a particular group, he/she inherits the login restrictions applied to that group.
• Selected Nodes: The User can only log in from specified IP addresses.
• Node Range: The User can log in from any IP within the specified range of IP addresses.

Please refer to the article- https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/123038

Can this be combined with SSL VPN to restrict certain users from logging in from specified public IP addresses?

So it turns out you can't.

This is only for the actual IP of the client. 

So once you connect to the SSL VPN, if the SSL VPN IP (range) is not in the allowed node list, it does not allow it.

even if there's another group that has the public IP allowed, it does not allow it.

Hi John Woodall 

Thank you for sharing the details.

Once the tunnel creates the traffic will be coming to the XG would the IP leased to SSL VPN client but it is not persistent IP which will not allow you to achieve your requirement.

We do have a persistent IP address for specific user feature in Sophos connect, L2TP and PPTP
