Always-on connection
[alwayson]
This parameter determines whether the connection is permanently enabled or not.
By default this parameter is set to disabled. In this case the IPSec connection is
started only when traffic is sent that complies with the IPSec policy, or if the
connection is started manually.
When enabled, the connection is started as soon as the SpeedTouch™ is
operational.
Descriptors [descr]
One or more alternative security descriptors can be defined for a connection. If
more than one selector is defined, the initiator presents these alternative proposals
during the Phase 2 negotiations. The responder selects a descriptor complying with
its capabilities. A responder with multiple descriptors matches the proposed
security descriptors with its own capabilities, and selects one preferred descriptor.
Options [options]
This parameter refers to the symbolic name of an option list. The options are
handled in a separate chapter, discussing the advanced features. For a basic IPSec
configuration, no option list is selected.
State [state]
This setting allows enabling or disabling the connection.
