With EzVPN, after ISAKMP Phase 1, there is phase 1.5 which is known as
Xauth. This is for user authentication.

For authentication, you need to use AAA. This is for both with pre-shared or
certs. Remember, the cert or preshared key is checked in Phase 1 that is
before Xauth.

For more scalalability, the authentication of user can be in the cert
itself.  With this user no more needs to enter username/password on the
client side. Instead, the clients enrolls a cert with username in the cert
itself and that username is authorized instead of Xauth.

This is known as PKI user authorization. This is only applicable for EzVPN
with certs. For this authentication is removed and cert authorization is
configured. The username from the cert is taken from the cert and sent to
ACS for authorization.

Note : The user attribute is cert can be any paramneter in the cert.
