About Mobile VPN with IKEv2 User Authentication

When you configure Mobile VPN with IKEv2, you select authentication servers, and configure users and groups for authentication. The users and groups you specify must exist on the selected authentication server.

Mobile VPN with IKEv2 supports two authentication methods:

Local authentication on the Firebox (Firebox-DB)

You can use the local authentication server on the Firebox for IKEv2 user authentication. If you use Firebox-DB for authentication, you must use the IKEv2-Users group that is created by default when you configure Mobile VPN with IKEv2. You can also add other users and groups in the IKEv2 configuration. The users and groups you add to the IKEv2 configuration are automatically included in the IKEv2-Users group.

RADIUS

You can use a RADIUS server for IKEv2 user authentication. If you use a RADIUS server for authentication, you can use the default IKEv2 -Users group (if you also add that group on the RADIUS authentication server), or you can add the names of users and groups that exist in the RADIUS authentication server database.

If you want to use an Active Directory database for authentication, you can configure your RADIUS server to use the Active Directory database. Then you can configure the RADIUS server on the Firebox, select RADIUS as the authentication method for Mobile VPN with IKEv2, and add the users and groups from your Active Directory database to the Mobile VPN with IKEv2 configuration. To configure your Active Directory server, see the documentation for your Microsoft operating system.

Two-factor authentication is not supported for Mobile VPN with IKEv2.
