Description

Your Gateway supports two mechanisms for IPSec tunnels:

1. IPSec PassThrough

supports Virtual Private Network (VPN) clients

running on LAN-connected computers. Normally, this feature is enabled.
However, you can disable it if your LAN-side VPN client includes its own
NAT interoperability option.
2. SafeHarbour VPN IPSec

is a keyed feature that enables Gateway-ter-

minated VPN support.
