Usage guidelines
The client authentication feature provides additional authentication in IKE negotiation for secure
remote access to an IPsec VPN.
When networking an IPsec VPN for remote access, enable client authentication on the IPsec
gateway. During the IKE negotiation, the IPsec gateway uses a RADIUS server to authenticate the
remote users. Remote users who provide the correct username and password pass the
authentication and continue with the negotiation. This feature simplifies the configuration on the
IPsec gateway and ensures the validity of the remote users. If you do not use this feature, you must
configure an IPsec policy and an authentication password for each remote user, which is
time-consuming and difficult to maintain.
Examples
# Enable XAUTH client authentication.

[Sysname] ike profile test
