      Dear all,

      I read in many articles that to establish IPSec VPN connection from Windows, it is not necessary to install any third party VPN clients.  Windows Vista and up should support IPSec natively.

      My question is, is it possible to establish IPSec VPN connection between my pfSense and my Windows 10 remote PC? A kind of "road warrior" connection would be perfectly acceptable. I need to know, of installation of third party IPSec VPN clients is inevitable.

      Thank you.
