D-Link DIR-455 User Manual
With the xAuth feature, the VPN client (or initiator)
needs to provide additional user information to
the remote VPN server (or VPN gateway) for
extended authentication. Otherwise, the VPN
server will reject the connection request from VPN
clients due to an unknown user, even though the
pre-shared key is correct. This function is suitable
for remote mobile VPN clients. Not only can you
configure a VPN rule with a pre-shared key for all
remote users, you can also designate that a user
is only permitted to establish a VPN connection
with the VPN server.
Disables Extended Authentication (xAuth).
Select this checkbox if the device behaves as
a VPN client, and will send user information to
remote VPN server for extended authentication.
You must input a correct user name and password
to pass authentication. Please note that remote
VPN servers without xAuth will reject your connect
request if you have activated this feature.
Select this checkbox if the router should behave as a VPN server, and will verify the legality of user information
from the VPN client. The user information that is provided by a VPN client needs to match the user information
that is in the user database of the VPN server. Click the XAUTH account button to edit the local user database.
Please note that only VPN clients with xAuth can establish VPN connection with the device if this checkbox
has been selected.
