Limit Users to One SSL-VPN Connection at a Time |

If you want to use split tunneling, select Enabled Based on Policy Destination or Enabled for Trusted Destinations. |

Select an IP pool for users to acquire an IP address when connecting to the portal. There is always a default pool available if you do not create your own. |

When enabled, if the user selects this option, their password is stored on the user’s computer and will automatically populate each time they connect to the VPN. |
Allow client to connect automatically |
When enabled, if the user selects this option, when the FortiClient application is launched, for example after a reboot or system startup, FortiClient will automatically attempt to connect to the VPN tunnel. |

When enabled, if the user selects this option, the FortiClient should try to reconnect once it detects the VPN connection is down unexpectedly (not manually disconnected by user). |
