Use the configure command to add a VPN Port

48	Chapter 6 - Basic Configuration Guide

Configuring the Server for LAN-to-LAN Tunnels

This section configures VPN tunnel parameters and defines a virtual port for LAN-to-LAN tunnel traffic. It assumes that you have already assigned IP addresses to the Ethernet interface(s), and set up static routes, as shown in VPN Client Tunnel Settings.

ϖNote: VPN Ports are only used for LAN-to-LAN tunnels. VPN Client tunnels do not use VPN Ports. LAN-to-LAN tunneling requires that you set parameters for a VPN port on each end of a tunnel, so you must repeat the following steps on the remote end.

1. Add a VPN Port.

Use the configure command to add a VPN Port.

Example

configure VPN Port 0

VPN Port(0) does not exist, do you wish to add it to the

config? y

2. Set up the Tunnel Partner.

Once you have created a VPN port, you need to provide some informa- tion about the remote Tunnel Partner and specify how tunnels will be set up.

Use configure and set keywords in the Tunnel Partner VPN port number section (this will be the number of the port you just created).

Partner-Specifies the IP address of the remote Tunnel Partner with which this VPN port will communicate via the tunnel. This will be an interface on the remote router which has been set to route IP and will also be the remote VPN port’s BindTo inter- face.

BindTo-This specifies which interface on this device will act as the end point for the tunnels defined by this configuration. Packets sent from this device to the remote Tunnel Partner will use this interface's IP address as a source address. If you are using both Ethernet ports, then the BindTo interface should be set to Ethernet 1. For single Ethernet setups, it should be Ethernet 0.

KeyManage-Sets how the tunnel will be set up.

If Auto key management is specified, IKE will be used to allow two devices to negotiate between themselves which encryption and authentication methods will be used for the tunnel.
