Default Gateway for VPN Traffic (VPNos 3.X)
The default gateway for VPN traffic policy allows the administrator to specify a gateway that is
used for either decrypted traffic, encrypted traffi c, or both. Beginning with VPNos 4.5, the de fault
gateway for VPN traffic policy allows the administrator to specify a gateway that is used for
decrypted traffic only.
This configuration is commonly applied to a VSU in the following topology:
Figure 27: Comm on Default Gateway for VPN Traffic topology
Figure 27 shows the default gateway of the VSU as R1, the Internet gateway. The VSU is
configured to protect several LANs on the other side of R2, the router on the pr ivate side of the
VSU.
In this topology, the administrator configures R1 as the default gateway of the VSU and R2 as
the Default Gateway for VPN Traffic with the decrypted box checked. Using this configuration
and checking the decrypted traffic box, all decrypted VPN traffic would be forwarded to R2 and
all encrypted traffic would be forwarded to R1. In this application, the Default Gateway for VPN
Traffic removes the need for a configured static route on the VSU for each protected LAN.
Note:
Note: Configured static routes take precedence over the Default Gateway for VPN
Traffi c.
