equinux VPN Tracker 6.4.6 - Manual (Page 18)

Advanced Settings
If you are connecting to one of the devices VPN Tracker has been tested with
and are following the configuration guide, you most likely won’t need to
change any advanced settings.
However, if you are not following a configuration guide (or have modified the
default VPN configuration on your VPN gateway), or if you are using a custom
device profile in VPN Tracker, you will probably need to adjust some advanced
settings: Make sure the settings for phase 1 and phase 2 in VPN Tracker match
exactly what is set up on your VPN gateway. You can ignore the other settings
in the Advanced tab for now.
VPN gateways sometimes use different terms for phase 1 and 2:
Phase 1 is sometimes also called “IKE”, while phase 2 may also be
called “VPN” or “IPsec”. To learn more about each setting on the
Advanced tab, check out the
→ Settings Reference.
Actions and Export
These settings are not relevant to VPN connectivity, so we will skip them for
now. They are covered in detail in
→ Working with VPN Tracker and → Export-
ing Connections
