Cisco Easyvpn Client For Mac
The EasyVPN is just that, but if I want a real IPSec VPN with a 'shared secret', and be compatible with the Mac, what is the best way to configure the RV320? As an aside, I know the Mac Cisco IPSec client works as I use it to connect to my work VPN which is an enterprise level ASA device. Cisco AnyConnect is the recommended VPN client for Mac. The built-in VPN client for Mac is another option but is more likely to suffer from disconnects. Overview Stanford's VPN allows you to connect to Stanford's network as if you were on campus, making access to restricted services possible.
