Chapter12 Easy VPN Remote
Creating an Easy VPN Remote Connection
Easy VPN Remote Wizard: Server Information
The information entered in this window identifies the Easy VPN tunnel, the Easy
VPN server or concentrator that the router will connect to, and the way you want
traffic to be routed in the VPN.
Automatically With the automatic setting, the VPN tunnel is established
automatically when the Easy VPN configuration is delivered to the
router configuration file. However, you will not be able to control
the tunnel manually in the VPN Connections window. The Connect
or Disconnect button is disabled when this Easy VPN connection is
chosen.
Manually With the manual setting, you must click the Connect or Disconnect
button in the Edit Easy VPN Remote window to establish or take
down the tunnel, but you will have full manual control over the
tunnel in the Edit Easy VPN Remote window. Additionally, if a
security association (SA) timeout is set for the router, you will have
to manually reestablish the VPN tunnel whenever a timeout occurs.
You can change SA timeout settings in the VPN Components VPN
Global Settings window.
When there is traffic from local
networks (interesting traffic)
With the traffic-based setting, the VPN tunnel is established
whenever outbound local (LAN side) traffic is detected.
Note The option for traffic-based activation appears only if
supported by the Cisco IOS image on your router.
