Chapter 6: Setting Advanced Properties

66

Microsoft’s Technet website, www.technet.microsoft.com, offers several
technical publications and online seminars that describe Vista’s advanced
IPSec and Firewall features as well as their implementation. These topics
are beyond the scope of this chapter. Instead, Allied Telesis recommends
that you consult Technet for additional information.

By default, the IPSec Offload property is set to Disabled.

Note

The IPSec Offload feature applies only to Windows Vista and
Windows 7.

To change the IPSec Offload setting, do the following:

1. Access the Device Manger for your operating system.

To access the Windows XP Device Manager, see “Selecting the
Device Manager Window” on page 47.

To access the Windows Vista Device Manager, see “Selecting the
Device Manager” on page 39.

To access the Windows 7 Device Manager, see “Selecting the
Device Manager Window” on page 54.

2. From the Advanced tab under Property, select IPSec Offload.

For an example of the Advanced tab, see Figure 31 on page 64.

3. From the Value list on the Advanced tab, select one of the following:

Auth Header & ESP Enabled

Auth Header Enabled

Disabled

ESP Enabled

4. Click OK.

5. If prompted to restart your computer, click Yes.

Although it is not necessary to reboot the system for new adapter
properties to take effect, rebooting is recommended to reinitialize all
registers.

6. Verify that the port LED operates as described in “Physical

Description” on page 20.
