IPsec remote access with MAC Binding

I'd like to use the IPsec remote access combined with the MAC Binding feature, in order to allow my users to connect the IPsec VPN only via devices allowed by the company. I already tried to do that with no success.

Is there any other setup I need to do besides enable the MAC Binding on the user profile?

I tried that and I could connect to the VPN using another machine than the one I've added to the MAC list.

Hello Roberto,

Thank you for contacting the Sophos Community!

Isn't possible to use the MAC Binding with IPsec Remote Access or SSL VPN as the XG will never see the MAC address of the Machine making the connection.

Hi Roberto,

Thank you for contacting the Sophos Community!

This is technical limitation and can not be achieved as when you connects the VPN, the firewall don't see the MAC address of the user.
