Managing Users, Authentication, and 

VPN Certificates

This chapter describes how to manage users, authentication, and security certificates for IPSec 
VPN and SSL VPN. This chapter contains the following sections:

•     Authentication Process and Options

•     Configure Authentication Domains, Groups, and Users

•     Manage Digital Certificates for VPN Connections

Authentication Process and Options

Users are assigned to a group, and a group is assigned to a domain. Therefore, you should 
first create any domains, then groups, then user accounts.

Do not confuse the authentication groups with the LAN groups that 

are discussed in 

You need to create name and password accounts for all users who need to be able to 
connect to the UTM. This includes administrators, guests, and SSL VPN clients. Accounts for 
IPSec VPN clients are required only if you have enabled Extended Authentication (XAUTH) 
in your IPSec VPN configuration.

Users connecting to the UTM need to be authenticated before being allowed to access the 
UTM or the VPN-protected network. The login screen that is presented to the user requires 
three items: a user name, a password, and a domain selection. The domain determines the 
authentication method that is used and, for SSL connections, the portal layout that is 
presented. 

IPSec VPN users always belong to the default domain 

(geardomain) and are not assigned to groups.
