With USG FLEX/ ATP( since ZLD 5.20) you are able to provision predefined settings on your device to SecuExtender IPSec as well as non-SecuExtender IPSec VPN clients. This article will show you how to use Remote Access VPN Setup Wizard to quick setup VPN tunnel using IKEv2 with EAP-MSCHAPv2 authentication.

 

Set up VPN Tunnel on ATP/USG FLEX

1.Log in to the Web GUI of your USG-FLEX/ATP, click Quick Setup, then select Remote Access VPN Setup to build up VPN tunnel with the Wizard.

 

2.Select Remote Access VPN Setup, and choose Zyxel VPN Client (SecuExtender IPSec).


3.Configure the VPN Authentication Method

(1) Choose Incoming Interface

(2) Choose Certificate for VPN Validation

(3) Select the tunnel type Full Tunnel and enable the check box of Allow Client VPN Traffic Through WAN.


4.Configure the IP Address Pool for the client

The IP address pool will auto select non-used subnet on the device to avoid setting up the same subnet on the device. The IP address Pool will begin at 192.168.50.1

If the subnet 192.168.50.1 exists in the gateway settings, the IP address pool will automatically change to 192.168.51.1 subnet.




5. Allow local user to access the device via VPN tunnel If you have not created the local users for remote VPN access, you can set up the local user here to allow the user to access the network through the VPN tunnel.
6. After done all the steps in the wizard, you can choose using either SecuExtender IPSec or non- SecuExtender IPSec VPN clients (iOS/MacOS, Windows, Strongswan-Android) to provision the VPN settings -  SecuExtender IPSec VPN client: Click Save button to complete the Wizard 
- Non-SecuExtender IPSec VPN client: Click to Non-SecuExtender VPN Client at the left hand side, then choose which device’s operating system you want to download the script to install on.
7. (Optional) Since ZLD5.10, Remote Access VPN Setup Wizard uses DH group 14 for VPN phase 1 setting. If you are using perpetual SecuExtender IPSec VPN client with default DH group 2, you can also manually add more DH group on ATP/USG FLEX to avoid re-provisioning. You can add maximum of 3 DH groups. ·On ATP/USG FLEX Web GUI, go to CONFIGURATION > VPN > IPSec VPN > VPN Gateway, edit the RemoteAccess_Wiz. In Phase 1 Settings, you can add more Key Group (DH)
