Checkpoint Endpoint VPN - 2 VPNs, only one works (via Endpoint VPN)

Wayne_Hammond — Mon, 29 Dec 2025 11:53:23 GMT

Hi,

We have 2 CheckPiont FWs. Our main one and a secondary managed on same Secure Gateway.

For FW 1, we have a VPN setup and users can config this in CheckPoint VPN and Capsule

Logon and auth is fine

For FW 2, we have a VPN setup and users can config this in CheckPoint VPN and Capsule, however only logon and auth works via Capsule.

If we try and logon via Endpoint, we never get a prompt for password (in our case PIN and RSA), it just tries to authenticate.

When using Capsule, if lets us enter Pin and RSA.

I guess i must have configured something wrong, any thoughts?

Hope you are ok !!

Cheers and Happy New year

Wayne

What version/JHF of gateway?
What client version(s)?
What exactly did you configure where?
Screenshots (with sensitive details redacted) will help.

Screenshots would definitely help. Btw, do you have MEP for remote access configured?

Hey Wayne,

Good morning! I was actually more referring to below:

Hi Andy,

No they are not configured in a cluster at all.

Thanks and Happy New Year

Hey Wayne,

No clue how this started whole new thread from the original one, but maybe @PhoneBoy can correct it.

No idea, but it's been merged back in.

Thank you! @Wayne_Hammond , I read the whole thing again and it appears to me all is correctly configured. Might be worth session with TAC to confirm all this, though from what you sent, appears radius is set globaly as auth, so should "kick in".
