Hi @Peter8382 ,

The legacy SecuExtender SSL VPN client for macOS has reached its End of Life (EOL).

The SecuExtender 3.2.5.10 you downloaded is the Zero Trust Client. It only supports SSL VPN connections when connecting to the newer USG FLEX H series firewalls. It does not support SSL VPN connections to standard USG FLEX (non-H) firewalls like your USG FLEX 500.

For recommended migration path, instead of SSL VPN, we strongly recommend configuring a native IKEv2 IPSec VPN. MacOS has built-in native support for IKEv2.
