I am having problems figuring out how to set up an additional VPN connection to our existing VPN connection so our users can connect to the VPN through our internal Wifi networks.

Our current configuration is as follows:

VPN does work through external connections arriving at the WAN public IP. The goal is to allow clients using the NATed Wifis to also connect to the same (or a very similar) VPN.

I originally posed this question here, and was instructed that USG60 devices do not support connections to VPN over internal ports before Firmware V4.32.

Now I upgraded to V4.32 and have tried to set up objects for an internal VPN connection:

Address Object

VPN Connection


VPN Gateway


Now when I go to the L2TP page, I can only select one of the 2 VPN Connections


What am I missing here? How do I configure this so users can connect to the VPN from internal connections?

    I forgot to add: with the above settings clients in the Wifis can not connect to VPN regardless on if they try to connect to IP of port 1 or port 4.

    Hi Stanlley,

    I had problems using firefox and chrome opening the console. Java plugins don't seem to be supported anymore. I used putty to connect and this seemed to work.

    After entering the commands there and rebooting, clients can now connect.

    If you can please, can you comment on if the internal vpn objects I created are even necessary? Or can I delete them? Because it seems internal clients use the regular VPN now.

    Hi @stephan

    According the objects that you added, you can delete that and just keep objects those been referenced in VPN rule.
