How do you implement remote access VPN for users with SSL VPN?

• A. Only use IPsec; SSL VPN is not available.
• B. Create an SSL-VPN portal; configure authentication (local or external), define IP pool, set up DNS, and attach a firewall policy for VPN traffic; enable MFA if possible.
• C. SSL VPN is automatically configured by FortiGuard.
• D. SSL VPN requires disabling all other VPN types.

Answer: (B)

SSL VPN remote access is set up by presenting a TLS-based portal that users connect to, then authenticating them and granting appropriate network access. To implement it, you create an SSL-VPN portal, configure how users authenticate (local accounts or external sources like LDAP, RADIUS, or SAML), define an IP address pool for the VPN clients, configure DNS for the VPN clients, and attach a firewall policy that allows VPN traffic from the VPN interface to the internal resources you want to reach. If possible, enable multi-factor authentication for stronger security. This approach is how FortiGate SSL VPN is designed to work for remote users: it provides access through a portal or FortiClient, supports various authentication methods, and requires a VPN client address space and a permitting firewall rule. The other statements don’t reflect the proper setup: SSL VPN is available and configurable, it doesn’t require disabling other VPN types, and it isn’t auto-configured by FortiGuard.
