Local ID
Type & ID

The identity used by the VPN gateway during the IKE
handshake. Typically the Name(DNS/User) type with a
simple ID text string (e.g., alice) can be used to iden-
tify the VPN gateway.
For more details on available identification types and ID
values, see

section 35.1.2

.

If Auto is selected, the local-id will be of type IP
Address
(for PSK authentication), using the IP address
of the specified Outbound interface as identity.

For

certificate authentication, Auto implies a local-id of type
Distinguished Name, using the subject string of the lo-
cal certificate as identity.

Peer ID
Type & ID

The identity used by the peer VPN gateway during the
IKE handshake. Typically the Name(DNS/User type with a
simple ID text string (e.g., bob) can be used to identify
the peer VPN gateway.
For more details on available identification types and ID
values, see

section 35.1.2

.

If Auto is selected, the Peer ID will be of type IP
Address
(for PSK authentication), using the IP address
from the Remote Peer Address/Name field as identity (a
domain name will be resolved to an IP address). For cer-
tificate authentication, Auto is discouraged for the Peer
ID
, see

section 35.1.7

for details.

ESP Auto
(Checkbox)

The cipher suite to use for the ESP handshake can ei-
ther be negotiated automatically between the peers, or
a specific suite can be configured manually. Check the
Auto checkbox to specify cipher auto-negotiation; un-
check the checkbox to specify an ESP cipher suite and
Diffie-Hellman group manually (see below).
Note: ESP cipher auto-negotiation is only valid with main
mode IKE. In case of aggressive mode, a specific ESP ci-
pher suite must be configured (see below).
