Chapter 4 Configuring Connection Entries

Authentication Methods

Step 4 Enter a unique connection entry name. You can use any name to identify this connection. This name can contain spaces, and it is not case-sensitive.

Step 5 Enter a description of this connection. This field is optional, but it helps to further identify this connection. For example, Connection to Engineering remote server.

Step 6 Enter the Host name or IP address of the remote VPN device that is providing access to the private network.

Step 7 Use the Authentication tab to select an authentication method. You can connect as part of a group, which is configured on the VPN device, or by supplying an identity digital certificate. See the “Authentication Methods” section on page 4-3for more information.

Step 8 Use the Transport tab to set transport parameters. See the “Transport Parameters” section on page 4-6for more information.

Step 9 Use the Backup Servers tab to view the current list of backup servers or to manually add a backup server. See the “Backup Servers” section on page 4-8for more information.

Step 10 The Erase User Password button at the bottom of this dialog box erases the user password that is saved on the VPN Client workstation, forcing the VPN Client to prompt you for a password each time you establish a connection.

Step 11 Click Save. The Connection Entry dialog box closes and you return to the Connection Entries tab.

Authentication Methods

You can configure a connection entry to authenticate as part of a group, which is configured on the VPN device, or by supplying an identity digital certificate. The Authentication tab on the Connection Entry Settings dialog box must be forward to select an authentication method for a connection entry.

Group Authentication

Use this procedure if you plan to use group authentication for this connection entry.

To configure group authentication:

Step 1 From the Authentication tab, click the Group Authentication radio button (Figure 4-3).
