• IPSec VPN Phase 1 configurations for dialup users. Only users in the selected

• The FortiGate PPTP configuration. Only users in the selected user group can use

• The FortiGate L2TP configuration. Only users in the selected user group can use

When you add user names, RADIUS servers, and LDAP servers to a user group, the
order in which they are added determines the order in which the FortiGate unit checks
for authentication. If user names are first, then the FortiGate unit checks for a match
with these local users. If a match is not found, the FortiGate unit checks the RADIUS
or LDAP server. If a RADIUS or LDAP server is added first, the FortiGate unit checks
the server and then the local users.
If the user group contains users, RADIUS servers, and LDAP servers, the FortiGate
unit checks them in the order in which they have been added to the user group.
