Anyone using TheGreenBow VPN client ?? Any recent user guide for Mobile IPsec ??
Hello,
I'm using TheGreenBow vpn client (TGB) , because it has a lot of key features, like encryption, setup from a usb key etc etc
Back few years I used a XTM330 and XTM370 , and I was able to establish a Mobile VPN IPsec, and connect from clients by using TGB program
I have recently update my device to XTM470, and eventough I have setup exactly the same MobileVPN IPsec , I cannot connect to it with TGB client
I was able to connect by using another IPsec client (the one on Watchguard support site, but it is a trial ...)
I used the following info found back in 2014 !!

Anyone has any recent config with TGB ?
Feel free to share
Best regards

Looking at that document, the settings there should be what you need in order to set up an IPSec VPN -- the policy manager interface for the IPSec VPN hasn't changed much if at all.
The client that we support from NPC has quite a few advanced features, and I'd generally only suggest using that if you specifically need them. For most customers, we suggest using the IKEv2 VPN, which uses the VPN client built into most modern OSes.

Hi James,
thanks for replying,
unfortunately eventhough I tried all possible config options, the TGB client was unable to connect.
Of course this is specific to that client, because as I told you I managed to connect with the "officially supported IPsec" NCP client.
Can you describe more what you mean by "using IKEv2 VPN" and whare I can find such instructions to try them ?
Regards to everyone, and Happy new year !!
