Radius server on ZyXEL FLEX H with SSL VPN
Ally Member
Recently upgraded to FLEX H series and in same time to WIndows Server 2025. We used to have AD Integration for VPN, so that users could be defined on AD. Classic implementation (TCP389) still works with new FLEX H series combined with SSL and OpenVPN Client.
But as we have to move on to Windows Server 2025, classic LDAP on TCP389 is phased out and now I'm testing Radius with NPS on Windows Server.
It seems my connection works(with certificate etc). But I still receive
Failed login attempt to Device from sslvpn (incorrect password or inexistent username)
In C:\Windows\System32\LogFiles\IN2510.log I get "WS2025","IAS",10/30/2025,11:58:14,1,"user","domain.local/Gebruikers/user",,,,,,"192.168.25.1",11396,0,"192.168.25.1","ZyXEL FLEX 50h",,,5,,,8,1,"Connections to other access servers",0,"311 1 192.168.25.2 10/30/2025 08:33:00 11",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"Use Windows authentication for all users",1,,,,
"WS2025","IAS",10/30/2025,11:58:14,3,,"domain.local/Gebruikers/user",,,,,,,,0,"192.168.25.1","ZyXEL FLEX 50h",,,,,,,1,"Connections to other access servers",65,"311 1 192.168.25.2 10/30/2025 08:33:00 11",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"Use Windows authentication for all users",1,,,,
I tried user@domain , user@domain.local , domain\user and user
But always wrong login/password
created ext-group-user, tried with both DistinguishedName and sAMAccountName, no difference.
Creating a local user on firewall works fine, so SSL VPN connection should be ok.
Not sure if it's now a config issue on flex or server?

Hi sorry but I can't help you, but if you have time can you explain me how I can have an AD integration on a SSL VPN? In my case the VPN is working but the client can't access a folder on a windows 2012 server of the LAN (in a domain ambient).

Why not using LDAPs (TCP 636) instead of RADIUS/NPS ?

Tried to follow that guide too, but something is missing here for me:
I don't have the possibility to enter my username, so tried just the Bind DN, but that's not working.

It's in AD server not LDAPs server.

That's weird… In the manual it clearly says, go to LDAP
But ok, Tried now through AD and tested my account and I get Invalid DN Syntax.
I Think it has something to do with my certificate. I've exported it in computer certificates with default settings and imported it in Trusted Certificates.
The Bind user I created in AD I delegated control on OU where my VPN Users group is in.
