1.In the Address Pools section of the IPSEC tab, click Add to open the Add Address Pool page.

2.Specify the pool name, the start address, and the end address.

3.Click Done to apply the configuration.

Enabling Source NAT

In the Source NAT section of the IPSEC tab, select Enable Source NAT if the IP addresses of clients need to be translated to access the network. If you enabled source NAT, click the NAT pool drop-down list and select an existing NAT pool. If you have not yet created the NAT pool you want to use:

5.In the End IP address field, enter the dotted-decimal IP address that defines the end of the range of source NAT addresses in the pool.

6.In the Destination NAT IP Address field, enter the destination NAT IP address in dotted-decimal format. If you do not enter an address into this field, the NAT pool uses the destination NAT IP 0.0.0.0.

7.Click Done to close the NAT pools tab

8.Navigate to Configuration > Advanced Services > VPN Services and click the IPSEC tab to return to the IPsec window.

9.Click the NAT Pool drop-down list and select the NAT pool you just created.
