      Hi,

      I am using Mobile Client IPSec on my pfSense 2.3.3 installation. (IPsec with PSK+Xauth)

      I'd like to enable DNS name resolution for connected clients or give each connected user (or, ideally, each device) a fixed IP address. Is this possible somehow?

      If this isn't possible with the PSK+Xauth setup, would this be possible with some other IPSec configuration that works with Windows, macOS and iOS clients?

        No, you can't give any fixed/predictable address to clients with mobile IPsec at this time.

        It's simple to do with OpenVPN though.
