32. The Inbound and Outbound Stateful Packet Inspection must also be set.
33. Once all these values all entered you click on Add.
34. Now under Action, select Set Options. This brings you to the IPSec Policy Options page. We
recommend that you use this section to always keep the tunnels up.
35. Under Dead Peer Detection Feature, make sure the enable box is checked.
Under Check Method there are three options:
Heartbeat
ICMP host
DPD (RFC 3706)
In our example we have selected DPD (RFC 3706). Under Action, it is important that you select
Keep Tunnel Alive.
36. Under Options, you can enable NetBIOS Broadcast to be able to send NetBIOS traffic through
the tunnel. Also enable Auto Triggered, to always reconnect the tunnel if the tunnel happens to
drop.
37. When you are finished click Set. This will take you back to the Policy Setup page,
then scroll down to the bottom and under Action hit the Update button.
38. You must then configure site two to match the entries in site one.
When you have finished, click on connect on any of the two LB-2s. In our example the connect
button was hit on Site A (Initiator) and the tunnel was established to Site B (Responder).
