Table 29-7 Menu 27.1: IPSec Summary

FIELD DESCRIPTION EXAMPLE

Local Addr
Start

When the Addr Type field in Menu 27.1.1 IPSec Setup is configured to
Single, this is a static IP address on the LAN behind your ZyWALL.

When the Addr Type field in Menu 27.1.1 IPSec Setup is configured to
Range, this is the beginning (static) IP address, in a range of computers
on the LAN behind your ZyWALL.

When the Addr Type field in Menu 27.1.1 IPSec Setup is configured to
SUBNET, this is a static IP address on the LAN behind your ZyWALL.

192.168.1.35

Local Addr
End

When the Addr Type field in Menu 27.1.1 IPSec Setup is configured to
Single, this is the same (static) IP address as in the Local Addr Start
field.
When the Addr Type field in Menu 27.1.1 IPSec Setup is configured to
Range, this is the end (static) IP address, in a range of computers on the
LAN behind your ZyWALL.
When the Addr Type field in Menu 27.1.1 IPSec Setup is configured to
SUBNET, this is a subnet mask on the LAN behind your ZyWALL.

Encap

This field displays Tunnel mode or Transport mode. See earlier for a
discussion of these. You need to finish configuring the VPN policy in menu
27.1.1.1 or 27.1.1.2 if ??? is displayed.

Tunnel

IPSec
Algorithm

This field displays the security protocols used for an SA. ESP provides
confidentiality and integrity of data by encrypting the data and
encapsulating it into IP packets. Encryption methods include 56-bit DES
and 168-bit 3DES. NULL denotes a tunnel without encryption.

AH (Authentication Header) provides strong integrity and authentication
by adding authentication information to IP packets. This authentication
information is calculated using header and payload data in the IP packet.
This provides an additional level of security. AH choices are MD5 (default
- 128 bits) and SHA -1(160 bits).

Both AH and ESP increase the ZyWALL’s processing requirements and
communications latency (delay).

You need to finish configuring the VPN policy in menu 27.1.1.1 or 27.1.1.2
if ??? is displayed.

ESP DES MD5

Key Mgt

This field displays the SA’s type of key management, (IKE or Manual).
