Use Auto Policy to Configure VPN Tunnels
You need to configure matching VPN settings on both VPN endpoints. The outbound VPN
settings on one end have to match to the inbound VPN settings on other end, and vice versa.
All VPN tunnels on the modem router require that you configure several network parameters.
This section describes those parameters and how to access them.
The most common configuration scenarios use IKE to manage the authentication and
encryption keys. The IKE protocol performs negotiations between the two VPN endpoints to
generate and update the required encryption parameters.
 To configure VPN network parameters:
1.
Select Advanced > VPN Policies.
2. Click the Add Auto Policy.
The VPN tunnel network connection fields are defined in the following sections.
VPN Auto Policy General Settings
• Policy Name
. Enter a unique name. This name is not supplied to the remote VPN
endpoint. It is used only to help you manage the policies.
• Remote VPN Endpoint . The remote VPN endpoint has to have this VPN gateway’s
address entered as its remote VPN endpoint.
If the remote endpoint has a dynamic IP address, select Dynamic IP Address. No
address data input is required. You can set up multiple remote dynamic IP policies, but
only one such policy can be enabled at a time. Otherwise, select an option (IP address or
domain name
) and enter the address of the remote VPN endpoint to which you want to
connect.
