How do I create user accounts for the VPN?
I am trying to use the VPN feature of my Nighthawk Mesh WiFi-6 system. I can't find any place in the admin web interface to add user accounts. How can I add those accounts? Thanks, Matt

You can't - all VPN users run on the same user account and the same certificate. If you have to ban/remove user(s) you need to roll-out a new config to all VPN users...

Thanks for your reply. So if there is only one user account, how do I set its username and password? I tried the admin account, and that didn't work.
Thanks,

Never mind, it appears just leaving username and password blank works. Thanks for your help.
