Note that the policy will be applied to all WAN interfaces, so a link on a second

WAN interface must have a policy item (or items) to permit traffic across that

interface.

Next, the policy item(s) that specify the SA(s), the rules to test packets against and encapsulation

algorithms and keys must be set. Each policy item is created by entering a name after selecting the

Edit Item menu option.

IPSec Policy Table Entry

The name may be up to 16 alphanumeric characters; spaces are not allowed,

use underscore as a separator.

After the name is entered, the Edit Policy Item menu will be displayed. Under this menu the

Encapsulating Security Payload SA parameters and policy rules are set.

The Security Parameters Indices (SPI) are identification numbers used to

identify packets to (outbound) or from (inbound) the peer router in the SA

connection. The Outbound SPI on one router must be exactly the same as

the Inbound SPI on the peer; similarly the Inbound SPI must exactly match

the outbound SPI on the peer set-up. The example shows 8 hex character

SPIs as set in Router 1, so for Router 2, the matching Outbound SPI would

then be ECA97531 and the Inbound SPI 24680BD.
