Hello,

As i know for remote access we should use checkpoint app to connect over vpn. Now can we make vpn directly by use vpn ipsec which provide by windows?

For Linux clients, we support the use of StrongSWAN (from R81 and above).
For Windows/Mac/iOS/Android, you need to use the appropriate Check Point client.
As noted, L2TP over IPsec is also an option, which does not require a specific client.

Capsule VPN app is a wrapper of sorts for the Windows client.

There are options to configured L2TP using the Windows client but this is likely less desirable.
