UTM9 Mac OSX Sierra - IPSec VPN
Hi all,
I have used the very useful PDF to enable a Mac on latest OS X Sierra to the UTM 9.
It even gets an IP address (as per the mode config).
But it cannot access or ping any devices on the network.
What have I screwed?
Cheers :)
Andy
I'd like to end this as closed. We achieved the required result by reverting back to standard PPTP using a 3rd party paid app on the Mac called Shimo.

Hello Dane,
Thankyou very much for this guide, I have followed it to the letter. A connection is established but I still cannot access any resources. I guess there are more steps for me to take now? A static route? A mode config?
I disclose right now that I really do not understand IPSec tunnels and have been forced down this route by the latest Mac OS release and our client insisting that he use it ... The previous PPTP connection that he had in El Capitan is now depreciated/removed in this latest 'Sierra' release.
Hi flattened,
Let me share the old forum link below. There are a lot of suggestions you can try.
