ExpiredTeleworker VPN - IPsec XAuth - Android Client
DrayTek routers running 3.8.9.1 or later firmware support IPsec with XAuth authentication, which allows many VPN clients to authenticate with a username and password. With IPSec XAuth you are not limited to pre-shared key because each teleworker can use their unique credentials.
