I've been using these for VPN use for years between sites - zero issues.

created a new need last year for users to remote into a network, set up different users, and in their settings, assigned an IP address their conneciton should use.  also created a VPN IP Pool, but originally I created a pool that was outside the range of the assigned IPs.  Just noticed today that the assigned IPs weren't being used - users were getting one from the VPN IP pool.

I adjusted the VPN IP pool to encompass the assigned IPs, and now the users are getting IPs closer to their assigned IPs, but not their assigned IP.  if I disconnect and reconnect a user, they get a different (next higher) IP from the pool.

the User configurition requires assigning them to a VPN IP pool, so i'm wondering if that's overriding their assigned IP.
