Hi there,

I want to know if the built in Windows VPN Server (INCOMING CONNECTIONS) supports IPSEC or only PPTP?

If it supports INCOMING IPSEC requests, can any of you please provide the links to the steps needed to configure the server?

Thanks!

Hi,

As far as I know, incoming connection doesn't support IPSEC. 

Best regards,

Hello John,

The "Incoming Connections" VPN server functionality in Windows 10 client supports PPTP, L2TP/IPsec, SSTP and IKEv2. This link discusses configuring Incoming Connections to accept L2TP/IPsec and IKEv2 VPN connections from the macOS VPN client: http://gary-nebbett.blogspot.com/2018/10/establishing-vpn-connection-from-macos.html
