While the specific cause wasn’t provided, users are advised on how to seek support and temporarily mitigate the problem until the fix is installed.
Based on the meeting notes, the key takeaways are:
1. Microsoft fixed a known issue causing VPN failures across Windows client and server platforms after installing the April 2024 Windows security updates.
2. Affected Windows versions included Windows 11, Windows 10, and Windows Server 2008 and later.
3. Microsoft provided guidance for addressing the VPN failures for home users, small businesses, and large enterprise customers.
4. The fix for the VPN failures was included in the May 2024 Patch Tuesday cumulative updates.
5. Admins who couldn’t immediately install the May updates were advised on temporary solutions for the VPN issues.
6. Uninstalling the problematic April updates would remove all fixes for patched security flaws, in addition to resolving the VPN issues.
