Network Extension—Choose Network Extension if you want the devices
connected to the inside interfaces to have IP addresses that are routable and
reachable by the destination network. The devices at both ends of the connection
will form one logical network. PAT will be automatically disabled, allowing the
PCs and hosts at both ends of the connection to have direct access to one another.
Consult with the administrator of the Easy VPN server or concentrator before
choosing this setting.
Tunnel Control
Choose either Auto or Manual.
With the Manual setting, you must click the Connect button in the Edit Easy VPN
Remote window to establish the tunnel, but you will have full manual control over
the tunnel in the VPN Connections window. The Connect and Disconnect buttons
are enabled whenever you choose a VPN connection with the Manual tunnel
control setting.
With the Auto 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 w indow. The
Connect and Disconnect buttons are disabled when this Easy VPN connection is
chosen.
Easy VPN Concentrator or Server
Specify the name or the IP address of the VPN concentrator or server that the
router connects to. Choose IP address if you are going to provide an IP address
or choose Hostname if you are going to provide the hostname of the concentrator
or server. Then specify the appropriate value in the field underneath. If you
specify a hostname, there must be a DNS server on the network that can resolve
the hostname to the proper IP address. If you enter an IP address, use standard
dotted decimal format, for example, 172.16.44.1.
Group
Group Name
Enter the IPSec group name. The group name must match the group name defined
on the VPN concentrator or server. Obtain this information from your network
administrator.
