​We strongly recommend using the GoodAccess application instead of the system-native VPN clients (Manual Configuration) due to additional security features built into our software. ​
Step 1
Get your OpenVPN credentials and CA certificate.
How to get the OpenVPN credentials and CA certificate:
Ask your GoodAccess admin to provide you with your OpenVPN credentials and CA certificate.
Or become a GoodAccess admin by activating your own team.
Step 2
Find the respective certificate in Keychain (search for "GA").
In Keychain, open the CA file or use right-click -> "Get info", choose "Always trust" and Apply changes.
​
‍Confirm this change by closing this window and refresh to see the certificate. A blue mark should appear next to it.
Step 3
Open System Preferences, go to Network and Add new connection.
Enter the following information in the dialog window:
interface =VPN
VPN type =IKEv2
choose a name for your new connection
Step 4
Add your Gateway address (hostname) to Server Address and Remote ID. You can find the hostname in the GoodAccess Web Control Panel -> Gateway.
Step 5
Open Authentication settings and enter your VPN credentials.
Step 6
Apply changes before clicking on the Connect button.
Step 7
Congratulations! Now you are connected to GoodAccess and can securely access your protected systems.
