Cyclades-PR4000
Chapter 16 - Virtual Private Network Configuration 143
An example showing a local security network and two remote security networks is shown in Figure 14.2. The
PR4000 in the local security network will be configured step by step. (Which network is considered local and
which network is considered remote depends on the router being configured.)
STEP ONE
The Virtual Private Network Utility must be Enabled in the ADMIN =>ENABLE FEATURES =>VPN menu before it
can be used. Navigate to this menu and enter the password supplied by Cyclades to activate VPN.
STEP TWO
Link 1 of the PR4000 (RSG3) should be fully configured and operational before beginning the VPN configuration.
Each router has an IP address (with optional secondary IP addresses) for each numbered interface. In addition,
each router has a Router IP Address
which is one of the interface IP addresses. This router IP address is used
whenever a single IP address is needed to identify the router. It is critical that each router being used as a remote
security gateway have this parameter defined. It is NOT defined automatically. Navigate to CONFIG =>IP
=>ROUTER IP and confirm that this parameter has been defined and is set to the value desired. An address that
can be routed on the internet is generally used.
Important!! The Router IP Addresses for the other Remote Security Gateways (RSG1 and RSG2 in the example)
must also be known before beginning the configuration of RSG3.
