Field

Description

Name

A generic, user-specified name for a group of settings for a single
tunnel.

Once the appropriate tunnel name is entered for the first time, click
Add New Tunnel to create a heading for the tunnel settings selected
from the Tunnel drop-down list. If no name is entered here, the
tunnels are sequentially named 1, 2, 3, and so on.

Enable drop-down

Once a particular VPN tunnel is named and configured, it can be
left stored and disabled or enabled via the Enable/Disable drop-
down list. Click Apply to make the "Enable/Disable" setting effective.

Local Endpoint Settings

Address group type

Set the local VPN access group as one of the following group
types:

Single IP address — for one computer, enter the IP address

for the specific computer

IP address range — for a small range of computers, enter

the starting and ending IP addresses for the group of
consecutive IP address that will have access to the VPN
tunnel

IP Subnet — for an entire subnet/network, enter the Subnet

and Mask

For IP address range and IP Subnet, enter the starting and ending
IP addresses for the group of consecutive IP address that will have
access to the VPN tunnel.

Identity Type

You can define the local endpoint identity type to automatically use
the WAN IP address of the router or as a user-specified IP address,
fully qualified domain name (FQDN), or e-mail address. This is the
identity that the far endpoint will use for identification of the VPN
termination point and handshake.

The remote VPN endpoint on the other side of the tunnel should
match the settings here for its remote endpoint settings.

Identity

Once the identity type is selected, enter the identity string here.

• For IP address, enter x.x.x.x.

• For FQDN, enter yourdomain.com

• For email address identity, enter [email protected]

The remote VPN endpoint on the other side of the tunnel should
match the settings here for its remote endpoint settings.
