Configuring XAuth authentication

Extended Authentication (XAuth) increases security by requiring additional user authentication in a separate exchange at the end of the VPN Phase 1 negotiation. The FortiGate unit challenges the user for a user name and password. It then forwards the user credentials to an external RADIUS or LDAP server for verification.

XAuth can be used in addition to or in place of IPSec phase 1 peer options to provide access security through an LDAP or RADIUS authentication server. You must configure dialup users as members of a user group who are externally authenticated. None can have passwords stored on the FortiGate unit.
