Supporting Multiple Users
Once your VPN expands to multiple users, you must ensure that IP addresses do not conflict. In
addition to such purely technical considerations, VPN Tracker makes it easy to distribute pre-
configured connections to your users, and prevent the modification of VPN connections and
access to confidential data.
Using Mode Config for IP Address Assignment
If multiple users connect using the same policy on your NETGEAR at the same time,
you must ensure that each of
them uses a different Local Address in VPN Tracker
by setting an individual Local Address for each of them. The
easiest way to ensure this, is to automatically have the NETGEAR assign IP addresses to connecting clients through
Mode Config.

VPN Tracker” for alternative solutions.
