Mobile VPN with IKEv2

Mobile Virtual Private Networking (Mobile VPN) with IKEv2 (Internet Key Exchange v2) creates a secure connection between a remote computer and the network resources behind the Firebox. Mobile VPN with IKEv2 uses IPSec to provide strong encryption and authentication.

In Fireware v12.1 and higher, Mobile VPN with IKEv2 supports connections from native IKEv2 VPN clients on iOS, macOS, and Windows mobile devices. Android users can configure an IKEv2 VPN connection with the third-party strongSwan app.

For information about how to set up Mobile VPN with IKEv2 on the Firebox and connect from an IKEv2 client, see:

Mobile VPN with IKEv2 supports local authentication on the Firebox (Firebox-DB) and RADIUS authentication servers.

Mobile VPN with IKEv2 supports two-factor authentication for MFA solutions that support MS-CHAPv2. AuthPoint, the WatchGuard MFA service, supports MS-CHAPv2 RADIUS authentication for manually created users as of the October 4, 2018 AuthPoint release.
