On the user's Microsoft Windows workstation:

1. Right-click on the icon found in the Windows system tray (hidden icons):
   

2. Select Connection panel.
3. Locate the connection created in the earlier steps (IKEv2GwEAPCERT in the example).
4. Click on Open.
   
   
5. Enter the login and password configured in the reference directory (for user1 in the firewall's internal directory in the example).
   
   The tunnel is set up.
   
   A green icon appears in front of it, and the button next to it now indicates Close:
   
6. When you close the connection window by clicking on the cross, the tunnel will remain open.
