In a typical set-up, everyone who connects to the same VPN server uses the same PSK. This key isn't your personal password, but a passphrase or key used in the IPsec configuration.

Pre-shared key: For PSK connections only.

Each VPN user should have their own unique username and password.

Username, Password: For EAP connections only.

Authentication type: Choose either Pre-shared key, User certificate, or Username and password.

Server hostname: Either the IP address or the full server hostname.

Server name: You can name your connection whatever you’d like.

If you use your Chromebook at work or school, you might need to get this information from your administrator.

In the box that opens, fill in the info.

Next to 'Add built-in VPN,' select Add.

In the “Network” section, select Add connection.

It'll either use a pre-shared key (PSK), user certificates, or Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) with a username and password to set up the secure tunnel. Your Chromebook has built-in support for VPNs that use Internet Key Exchange version 2 (IKEv2).
