In this recipe, we will configure the IPsec service to allow multiple clients to connect to our network.
In the previous recipe, we showed how IPsec can be used to create a VPN tunnel between two pfSense firewalls. In this recipe, we will demonstrate how IPsec can be used for a different purpose. Sometimes, we want to allow individual clients to access our network over the internet. Fortunately, pfSense enables us to do this, via IPsec mobile client configuration. In order to configure mobile clients, we must set up individual user accounts, and as was the case when we were configuring Captive Portal in pfSense, the User Manager provides a means for adding user accounts.
