If you only have 2 clients accessing the vpn, you might want to consider setting up the user portal and using that for clientless access.

Shrewsoft does work with the UTM. I had a thread on here about it. There's a setting in the last tab of the shrewsoft client that has to be set for it to work.

Sophos XG Firewall v17: How to enable IKEv2 for IPsec VPN

I believe it will just be an update not a full install (that might cause issues with all the Sophos Admins out there who have been waiting a very long time for this), although Sophos has this on their road-map, I can only imagine the issue they are having getting it working.

It's meant to be due out early next year.

Great news, JasonFell. Didn't know IKEv2 will be released. Will it be available through a firmware update or will it need full reinstall?

Hi panicos,

Karlos is right, IPSEC VPN clients are mostly licensed, although ShrewSoft is a Free IPSec VPN client, but it is open source. I also haven't used it, so cannot guarantee it is flawless or that it will work correctly (you may have to do some testing first).

If you wait a few months, IKEv2 is about to be released for the UTM, and Windows can use this OOTB..

Hi panicos

Unfortunately, IPsec VPN client requires a license. The only free remote access VPN clients available are SSL, L2TP over IPsec, PPTP & Cisco VPN.

Thanks,

Karlos
