Barracuda Networks VERSION SP4 manual IP address of the VPN server

10.6.9Adaptation of Profile Creation using an .ini file (Barracuda NG Authentication only)

Some parameters configurable in the Connection Entries and Advanced Settings (10.6.3 Advanced, page 139) tabs can be passed to the NG VPN Client through an .ini file. When a profile with Barracuda NG authentication is created the Barracuda NG Firewall Connector looks for an .ini file in the same directory as the .lic file is retrieved from. The .ini file is expected to be named equally to the .lic file (for example C:\licenses\barracuda_user.lic requires C:\licenses\barracuda_user.ini). If the .ini file is available, the values defined there will be used for the VPN profile.

The following parameters can be defined through the .ini file:
