OS X EI Capitan is the twelfth major release of OS X which is now known as macOS. IKEv2 is a protocol that is used to build automatic secure connections. Well, here’s how you can configure PureVPN on EI Capitan and above versions using IKEv2:
Apr 04, 2016 I also tried it over VPN and while I can see the shares, I seem to have trouble accessing the main folder where the shares reside. A friend was unable to connect to his NAS after upgrading to El Capitan. I just put aliases for the shares on his desktop, which seemed to work just fine. I didn't experiment with ethernet, but it was easily.
Things to Consider:
Before you begin, please make sure that:
- You have a working internet connection
- Mac Supported Device.
- A Premium PureVPN account (If you haven’t bought yet click here to buy)
1 Click on Apple Icon and select “System Preferences”
2 Click on Network
3 Click on + icon to create a new service
4 Insert the following info:
- From Interface drop down menu select “VPN”
- From VPN Type drop down menu select IKEv2
- Insert desired Service Name as PureVPN IKEv2, PureVPN US IKEV2, PureVPN DE IKEV2 etc
- Click on Create
5 Insert the following info:
- Insert desired server address in Server Address box. Click here to get the list of servers
- Under Remote ID: Insert pointtoserver.com
- Leave Local ID: Empty
- Check “Show VPN status on Menu bar.”
- Click on “Authentication Settings.
6 From Authentication Settings keep Username selected from drop down menu.

7 Click on Apply then click on VPN Status Icon from Menu bar
8 Select “Show Time Connected”
9 Click on Connect and VPN connection will establish in few seconds.
10 VPN has been connected Sucessfully
Note: If you see Status Connecting… and Connect button turn to Disconnect that means VPN has been connected. Due to glitch Status doesn’t show connected. Simply click on your Lan / Wifi connection then click back on IKEv2 VPN connection and status will change.
There you go, your VPN should be connected successfully!

Thanks for getting back with me so quickly!
Also, I think the '198.18.19.20' address in the tutorial is a mistake. I don't know why that's in there, as it's not the address I'm supposed to use to connect to IPMI.
Address I need to reach: 172.17.68.86

My current IP: 173.198.8.187
The tutorial's '192.18.19.20' is probably an example not the real IP.
'My current IP: 173.198.8.187' is your public IP address (that is your router WAN's side IP) isn't it?

I meant your LAN IP address range.
