What I'm hearing is that to use Windows 10 I should contact IT and ask them to provide me what should be publicly available. Below the list from Dell below shows no support for Windows 10, I did talk to someone on their support line who told me there is no support for Windows 10 yet. I did contact my IT department whose reply is you don't upgrade the day the software is released -- in my case my Toshiba laptop dropped and the screen cracked so I purchased a new one with Windows 8.1 - Windows 8.1 requires switching between start and desktop and using search to get anything done, fills the screen with spam applications, requires registering to use the computer OOB, and is so counter-intuitive, difficult to use, that I took a huge risk and did the upgrade on a new system.

I'm trying to get VPN access up and running. The company has a SonicWall firewall/concentrator and I'm working on a Mac. I'm not sure of the SonicWall's hardware or software level. My MacBook Pro is OS X 10.8, x64, fully patched.
The Mac Networking applet claims the remote server is not responding. The connection attempt subsequently fails:
This is utter garbage, as a Wireshark trace shows the Protected Mode negotiation, and then the fallback to Quick Mode:
I have two questions: (1) does Mac OS X VPN work in real life? (2) Are there any trustworthy (non-Apple) tools to test and diagnose the connection problem (Wireshark is a cannon and I have to interpret the results)?
And a third question (off topic): what is so broken in Cupertino such that so much broken software gets past their QA department? I pay good money for the software to run their hardware, and this is an absolute joke.
EDIT (12/14/2012, 6:00 PM): The network guy sent me 'VPN Configuration Guide' (Equinox document SonicOS_Standard-6-EN). It seems an IPSec VPN now requires a Firewall Unique Identifier. Just to be sure, I revisited RFC 2409, where Main Mode, Aggressive Mode, and Quick Mode are discussed. I cannot find a reference to Firewall Unique Identifier.
EDIT (12/14/2012, 11:00 PM): From the Mac OS X logs (so much for the garbage message box from this crummy operating system):

This thread comes up on a lot of Google searches for Mac OS X compatibility with SonicWall VPNs, so even though the thread is old, I just wanted to post that YES, Mac OS X's native VPN client works fine with SonicWall's L2TP VPN. Third-party VPN clients are nice and full-featured, but certainly not required. Proper configuration is necessary on the UTM-side, but the UTM admin should have confirmed Mac OS X compatibility before provisioning a VPN account to you (IMHO).
For troubleshooting, I recommend two things:
Sonicwall Global Vpn Client Download Windows 7
That said, I have been successful setting up a L2TP VPN configuration that uses certificate authentication (not PSK) and IKEv2, and I can verify that it works for both native Mac OS X 10.10 and native Windows 7 VPN clients. Windows 8 should also be OK, but I cannot confirm. (IKEv1 with PSK auth also works, but I implore you to not configure the VPN this way -- it's not secure.). Please note that at no point is the use of the SonicWall's Firewall Unique Identifier needed.
I'm not an advocate of people blindly configuring settings that they don't understand. However, here are the settings I used in the hopes that admins who are new to setting up VPNs use the following as a template to stop using IKEv1 PSK, and properly configure a solid and secure VPN for their organization. The following is on a SonicWall NSA-series unit with SonicOS 5.8.x. I hope it helps: https://bravoyellow563.weebly.com/blog/free-stand-alone-subversion-client-for-mac.

SonicWall VPN does work with OSX devices, though not always out of the box. The SonicWall server's VPN policy has to be configured the right way. I've managed to get iPads and iPhones to connect to them once I got the VPN policy created right. If the SonicWall's VPN policy is not set up right, it just won't work.

I was able to connect OS X El Capitan to a Sonicwall TZ 215 using pre shared key (PSK), on the WAN GroupVPN. This was previously working for me with VPN Tracker, but now that I'm running El Capitan beta, VPN Tracker does not work, so I figured I'd give the native VPN another shot.
At first it wasn't working, and I thought I'd have to reconfigure the sonicwall as described by @AnnonymousCoward, to use certificates. However, I noticed in one of the KB documents referred to here that you should enable the Accept Multiple Proposals for Clients checkbox in the Advanced tab of the WAN GroupVPN if you're having problems connecting from iOS (and I figured, maybe OS X as well).
THIS WORKED.
To be clear, my WAN GroupVPN is configured for
ESP: 3DES/HMAC SHA1 (IKE) . Using Group2 for Phase 1. Life Time is 28800 on Phase 1 and 2. XAUTH is setup.
Under L2TP settings in the main VPN section of the Sonicwall, you must enable and configure the L2TP Server. I set mine up to assign IP addresses to trusted users (e.g. XAUTH users) in the same IP network range as the rest of my remote network.
On OS X side, I created a
VPN (L2TP) connection. Server address is that of the remote firewall. Account name is that of the XAUTH user. Authentication settings has Password set as the XAUTH user password, and Shared Secret set as the PSK that was configured on Sonicwall. Group Name is left blank.
I haven't totally figured out routing. Normally in VPN tracker I define the network ranges that I want to route over the VPN (and they must match the routes that are defined on Sonicwall for the endpoint, e.g. 10.72.0.0/16 in my case). I can define multiple remote networks, if I need them, But I don't see where to specify that kind of setup in OS X's VPN configuration. However, so far I am not having a problem accessing the remote network. So I'm guessing L2TP works differently than the configuration I'm using in VPN Tracker.
