A VPN allows a computer to securely connect to a specific network over an internet connection. In this tutorial, we’ll discuss how to configure an L2TP/IPsec VPN on Windows 10 so that your computer can connect to a VPN server as a client.

The L2TP/IPsec protocol was chosen because it’s natively available on Windows 10 and widely used on various modern operating systems. With IPsec support, a VPN connection can encrypt data traffic sent between the client and server, making network access more secure than a traditional connection.

In this guide, you will follow the process of creating a VPN profile on Windows 10, filling in server information, setting security settings, until the connection to the VPN server is successfully completed.

  1. Make sure you have the information needed to connect to the VPN. In this tutorial, we’ll use
    the VPN server: vpn.testserver.net
    Username: user01
    Password: comet123
    IPSec preshared key: comet12345678
    Server in the remote area: 10.1.1.11

  2. Click VPN in the left sidebar, then click Add a VPN connection in the top right.

  3. Complete the columns as shown in the following image, and click Save.

  4. In the Settings window, select the newly created VPN profile, then click Connect.


    If all configurations are correct, the status will change to connected.
  5. Ping test to remote server 10.1.1.11
