VPN spoke general configuration steps

A remote VPN peer that functions as a spoke requires the following configuration:

• A tunnel (AutoIKE phase 1 and phase 2 configuration or manual key configuration)

for the hub.

• The source address of the local VPN spoke.
• The destination address of each remote VPN spoke.
• A separate outbound encrypt policy for each remote VPN spoke. These policies

allow the local VPN spoke to initiate encrypted connections.

• A single inbound encrypt policy. This policy allows the local VPN spoke to accept

encrypted connections.

To create a VPN spoke configuration
