Interfaces

This section of the VPN 3002 Hardware Client Manager applies functions that are interface-specific, rather than system-wide.

You configure two network interfaces for the VPN 3002 to operate as a VPN device: the private interface and the public interface. If you used Quick Configuration as described in the VPN 3002 Hardware Client Getting Started manual, the system supplied many default parameters for the interfaces. Here you can configure them explicitly.

The VPN 3002 includes some IP routing functions: static routes, DHCP, and PPPoE. You configure static routes, the default gateway, and DHCP in the IP Routing section; see the Configuration System IP Routing screens. PPPoE requires no further configuration than supplying a username and password in the Public Interface parameter.

Configuration Interfaces

This section lets you configure the private and public interfaces.

•Private is the interface to your private network (internal LAN).

•Public is the interface to the public network.

Configuring an Ethernet interface includes supplying an IP address and subnet mask, and setting speed and transmission mode.

Note Interface settings take effect as soon as you apply them. If the system is in active use, changes might affect tunnel traffic.

The table on the Configuration Interfaces screen shows all installed interfaces and their status.
