Creating a designated VPN

9.On the LDAP server, a local server or an external server with a different context, add user. Enter the user credentials.

10.Log in to the security gateway through the VPNremote client using the credentials entered in the RADIUS/LDAP server. The user should be authenticated successfully by the RADIUS/LDAP server. The RADIUS/LDAP server returns the VPN name to the security gateway. The user then gets the default VPN policy from the security gateway.

RADIUS attributes enable the VPN administrator to define what VPN policy is delivered to the remote client by the security gateway during the authentication process.

To set up a designated VPN within a selected domain, perform the following steps:

1.Add the security gateway(s). Add an IPGroup(s) and associate this group with this security gateway.

2.Create a default user or default user group in the VPNmanager.

3.Create a new VPN Object, see Creating a new VPN object on page 136.

4.Add the default user and IPGroup(s) to the new VPN.

5.Use the Policy Manager to configure the RADIUS Server, Attributes, and Settings.

6.The RADIUS attributes and setting can remain as default.

7.Click Edit>Preferences on the main screen of VPNmanager Console and enable RADIUS Authentication/Local Configuration.

8.Update this configuration to the security gateway(s). The security gateway(s) should now have the designated VPN in its configuration.

9.On the RADIUS server, add a user. Enter the user credentials and the attribute type & tag to match to the one you entered in the VPNmanager for that security gateway.

10.Now login into the security gateway through the VPNremote client using the credentials entered in the RADIUS server. The user should be authenticated successfully by the RADIUS server. The RADIUS server returns the VPN name to the security gateway. The user then gets the designated VPN policy from the security gateway.
