In my setup (OS X 10.9 with IPSec client using XAuth PSK) I don't have 
to enter a login or password or shared secret because that's already in 
the OS X IPSec VPN configuration in Network Preferences.  The only time 
I am prompted to enter the password is after about an hour, presumably 
when the IPSec lifetime has expired on the client side.

When I connect from the Mac, all I get is a popup saying "VPN 
Connection" and buttons with "Disconnect" and "OK".

For me, enabling or disabling NAT-T is the difference between traffic 
routing out of the pfSense box or not, i.e., the VPN working or not 
working.

Cheers,

Paul.

Bruce,

thanks for your reply.  I have looked at that page already to verify my initial 
settings were correct, and they are.  It is the final tweak that I am trying to 
locate.  I just don’t understand why simply turning NAT-T on or off would 
completely eliminate the login prompt.

I've had this working (with at least Mac OS 10.8 and 10.9 and iOS 6 and
7, with their built-in IPsec clients) on pfSense 2.1.x, following a
modified version of these instructions:

https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Mobile_IPsec_on_2.0

Unfortunately it's been quite awhile since I set this up, and I don't
remember the changes I had to make for newer versions of pfSense (they
weren't major however, and mostly had to do with UI changes in pfSense
rather than IPsec functionality).

Once I flailed around with the initial setup, it Just Works (tm).

Hope this helps,

Bruce.

Hi !

 

Is there any possibility to disable the IPSec deflate option ?

(It seems as if there are some problems with AVM-products and i would like
to check this out)
