Setting up user tunnels

To implement user tunnels, you must configure the following:

Allowed tunnel access to the Nortel VPN Router

Tunneling protocol settings

A user group

Add users to the group

A means, such as DHCP or pool, for assigning IP addresses to the client to

allow user access

All tunneling protocols are enabled on the public and private networks by default.

Since data in tunnels is encrypted, the default setting guarantees that all

interactions with the Nortel VPN Router are private. To prevent tunnel

connections of a particular type (for all users, including administrators), you can

simply disable the tunnel type.

For example, if you want to use IPsec as your only public tunneling protocol, then

disable the Public selection for PPTP, L2TP, and L2F. By leaving IPsec, PPTP,

L2TP, and L2F enabled on the private side, you can establish tunneled connections
to the Nortel VPN Router using any of the tunnel types from within your

corporation.
