tunnel has been configured to require XAUTH authentication).

Authentication Rules

A user authentication rule specifies:
From where (i.e. receiving interface, source network) users are allowed
to authenticate to the firewall;
Which agent will be used by the firewall to prompt users the
authentication request.
Where is the location of the database that the firewall consults to
perform the authentication, either in a local registry or from the
external server;
Different timeout restrictions to logout the authenticated users
automatically.
When using XAUTH agent, there is no need to specify the receiving
interface, or source network, as this information is not available at the
XAUTH phase. For the same reason, only one XAUTH user authentication
rule can be defined. XAUTH is only used to set up IPsec VPN tunnels.
