Adding users without a directory

If you don’t have Active Directory, add users in the console and give them a profile. Use the same process to add phones and Macs, even if you have a directory.

  1. Add a device

    Add a device in the console and give it a label, such as the employee’s name and device name. You can also add an email address. The label and email address stay on the server.

  2. Deliver the profile

    Choose how to deliver the profile: download a file, display a QR code to scan with a phone, or send it by email through your company’s mail server. The email does not pass through nuVPN.

  3. The employee imports the profile

    The employee opens the nuVPN app, imports the file or scans the code, and connects.

To send profiles by email, configure your company’s mail server (SMTP or Microsoft 365) in the console. Messages are sent through that server.

When an employee leaves or loses a device, revoke the device in the console. Revocation takes effect immediately, and the device can no longer connect.
