Authentication Policy and VPN

Authentication policies are applied based on a traffic flow's source and destination IP addresses. If

VPN traffic matches an authentication policy's source and destination IP addresses, the user must

pass authentication.

Forced User Authentication

Instead of making users for which user-aware policies have been configured go to the ISG50 Login

screen manually, you can configure the ISG50 to display the Login screen automatically whenever

it routes HTTP traffic for anyone who has not logged in yet.

Note: This works with HTTP traffic only. The ISG50 does display the Login screen when

users attempt to send other kinds of traffic.

The ISG50 does not automatically route the request that prompted the login, however, so users

have to make this request again.
