Adding multiple VPN users to NETGEAR FVS318Gv2

I have read "https://community.netgear.com/t5/VPN-Firewalls/How-do-I-allow-multiple-users-to-VPN-in-at-once/m-p/9..." but I still cannot seem to configure the NetGear FVS318Gv2 to allow multiple users.

 

I intitally configured the NETGEAR FVS318Gv2 to allow a single user connect via a shared secret but now I need to add additional users.  I have scoured the NETGEAR FVS318Gv2 manual but I am no closer to coming up with a solution.  Is there any advice anyone can give me?

Hi DanGil,
Welcome to the community!

Here is the steps to config IPsec user on firewall.
1.On User->User page,add the user,select user type to IPSEC VPN User
2.Create Client-to-Gateway IPsec policy
3.Disable vpn policy
4.Go to VPN->IPSec VPN->IKE policies,edit XAUTH configuration to Edge Device,Auth type select User Database
5.Enable vpn policy
6.Config VPN client that can refer https://community.netgear.com/t5/VPN-Firewalls/How-do-I-allow-multiple-users-to-VPN-in-at-once/m-p/9...

I followed the suggested steps but still no luck.  I am going to reread the manual starting at Chapter 5 and see how I end up.

After rereading Chapter 5 I was able to implement the Extended Authentication (XAuth) and I now have multiple users connecting at the same time.

 

You can consider this issue solved.

 

Thank you.
