Configuring an ANG-3000/7000

This chapter describes how to configure network settings for your local
Aurorean Network Gateway (ANG-3000/7000). Local ANGs have an
accompanying Aurorean Policy Server and are configured using RiverMaster.
Remote ANGs are stand-alone systems configured by using the Web-based
Aurorean Policy Manager utility. The ANG-1000 is configured using its Web-
based configuration utility only. Network settings for the ANG fall into these
categories:

H General settings such as the DNS, WINS and NAT servers that

remote clients require for name resolution or authentication.

H Tunnel protocol (PPTP or IPSec) parameters for authentication,

encryption, and compression.

H Virtual subnets containing pools of IP addresses or IPX network

numbers that are allocated to remote users when they tunnel into the
corporate network.

H Routing protocol (static, RIP, and OSPF) settings for each ANG

Ethernet interface.

H Site-to-site tunnel parameters between two Aurorean Network

Gateways.

NOTE

The ANG-3000/7000 can also be configured using a floppy disk.

Appendix B describes a procedure similar to configuring the ANG using

the RiverMaster application. Using the floppy disk method allows an

administrator to centrally configure one or more gateways and

conveniently distribute that configuration data on floppy disks to remote

sites.
