While IPSec VPN configurations vary widely, the following example configuration (used with StrongSwan) is a valid customer-side config:

config setup
  uniqueids=never
  strictcrlpolicy=no
conn wandera-access
  left=%any
  leftid=@wpa.wandera.com
  leftsubnet=192.168.253.0/24
  leftauth=psk
  right=aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
  rightid=%any
  rightsubnet=0.0.0.0/0
  rightauth=psk
  auto=add
  keyexchange=ikev2

Ensure that you update the values for the following fields:

FieldDescription
rightThe IP address you found in a previous step using ifconfig
rightidThe Customer IKE Domain ID that you configured in Jamf Security Cloud. Many firewalls refer to this value as the "Local ID". For StrongSwan, this may be any
rightsubnetThe subnets provided in the Application Server IPs or Subnets field when requesting the new gateway.
rightUsed to indicate that connections should be allowed to and from any other IP address from the Jamf Security Cloud infrastructure. Other firewalls may require you to define this as 0.0.0.0/0
leftidThis must be set to wpa.wandera.com. Many firewalls refer to this value as the "Remote ID". Also, select "Hostname" (or similar) not "IP" as the remote identifier type if asked to specify one.
leftsubnetThis corresponds to the "Jamf Security Cloud-Side Subnet" defined in your IPSec configuration in Jamf Security Cloud. This is known as the Remote Subnet or Encryption Domain that defines the networks which are accessible via the IPSec connection. For QuickConnect, this defaults to 192.168.253.0/24
