You can configure the native IKEv2 VPN client on iOS and macOS devices for a VPN connection to your Firebox.

To automatically add a VPN profile to your device, you can use .mobileconfig profile that you download from the Firebox. Or, you can manually configure the settings. This topic includes instructions for both automatic and manual configuration.

Fireboxes with Fireware v12.1 or higher support Mobile VPN with IKEv2.

For operating system support information, see the Operating System Compatibility Matrix in the Fireware Release Notes.

WatchGuard provides interoperability instructions to help our customers configure WatchGuard products to work with products created by other organizations. If you need more information or technical support about configuring a non-WatchGuard product, see the documentation and support resources for that product.

Automatically Configure VPN Settings

To automatically configure a VPN connection with a profile provided by WatchGuard, you must download a .TGZ file from your Firebox and extract the contents. This file contains instructions and profiles for different operating systems. For information about how to download this file, see Configure Client Devices for Mobile VPN with IKEv2.

The profile creates a new IKEv2 VPN connection. It also installs the required CA certificate for the VPN connection.

On iOS devices, you must type the user name and password when prompted. If you do not specify a user name and password, the VPN profile is created but does not work.

To automatically add a new IKEv2 VPN profile in macOS:
  1. Send the .mobileconfig file to your macOS computer.
  2. To import the file, double-click it.
    The Profiles dialog box opens.
  3. When prompted to install the profile, click Continue.
  4. (Optional) To save your username and password for later use, specify those credentials now.
  5. Click Install.
  6. When prompted to install the profile, click Install.
  7. From the Apple menu, select System Preferences > Network.
  8. To connect to the VPN, click the VPN connection that you added and click Connect.
