Choose 'User-logon' as the connect method. Navigate to Portal->Agent->Config->App and change the connect method.
If not saving credentials or using OTP in passwords, the user should reconnect without any prompt. You could also try using authentication cookies, to avoid entering credentials again and again.

HTH.

Hello,

Another option, that costs money, would be to put in a device that can do the VPN for the clients such as a router or another PAN. This way each user doesnt have to VPN in themselves. I would recommend tunneling all traffic that way the users are protected by the main PAN.

Hi Mate,

Could also test out if improves when using ssl tunnel and not ipsec. Have found ssl performs better when slow connections are in play.

Kind regards
