NAT Traversal This function is available if the VPN protocol is ESP.

Select this check box if you want to set up a VPN tunnel when there are NAT

routers between the ZyXEL Device and remote IPSec router. The remote IPSec

router must also enable NAT traversal, and the NAT routers have to forward UDP

port 500 packets to the remote IPSec router behind the NAT router.

Name Type up to 32 characters to identify this VPN policy. You may use any character,

including spaces, but the ZyXEL Device drops trailing spaces.

IPSec Key Mode Select IKE or Manual from the drop-down list box. IKE provides more protection

so it is generally recommended. Manual is a useful option for troubleshooting if

you have problems using IKE key management.

Negotiation Mode Select Main or Aggressive from the drop-down list box. Multiple SAs connecting

through a secure gateway must have the same negotiation mode.

Encapsulation

Mode

Select Tunnel mode or Transport mode from the drop-down list box.

DNS Server (for

IPSec VPN)

If there is a private DNS server that services the VPN, type its IP address here.

The ZyXEL Device assigns this additional DNS server to the ZyXEL Device's

DHCP clients that have IP addresses in this IPSec rule's range of local addresses.
A DNS server allows clients on the VPN to find other computers and servers on

the VPN by their (private) domain names.

Local

Local IP addresses must be static and correspond to the remote IPSec router's

configured remote IP addresses.
Two active SAs can have the same configured local or remote IP address, but not

both. You can configure multiple SAs between the same local and remote IP

addresses, as long as only one is active at any time.
In order to have more than one active rule with the Secure Gateway Address

field set to 0.0.0.0, the ranges of the local IP addresses cannot overlap between

rules.
If you configure an active rule with 0.0.0.0 in the Secure Gateway Address field

and the LAN’s full IP address range as the local IP address, then you cannot

configure any other active rules with the Secure Gateway Address field set to

0.0.0.0.

Local Address

Type

Use the drop-down menu to choose Single, Range, or Subnet. Select Single for

a single IP address. Select Range for a specific range of IP addresses. Select

Subnet to specify IP addresses on a network by their subnet mask.

IP Address Start When the Local Address Type field is configured to Single, enter a (static) IP

address on the LAN behind your ZyXEL Device. When the Local Address Type

field is configured to Range, enter the beginning (static) IP address, in a range of

computers on your LAN behind your ZyXEL Device. When the Local Address

Type field is configured to Subnet, this is a (static) IP address on the LAN behind

your ZyXEL Device.

End / Subnet Mask When the Local Address Type field is configured to Single, this field is N/A.

When the Local Address Type field is configured to Range, enter the end (static)

IP address, in a range of computers on the LAN behind your ZyXEL Device. When

the Local Address Type field is configured to Subnet, this is a subnet mask on

the LAN behind your ZyXEL Device.
