Configuring an ANG-3000/7000

This chapter describes how to configure network settings for your local Aurorean Network Gateway (ANG-3000/7000). Local ANGs have an accompanying Aurorean Policy Server and are configured using RiverMaster. Remote ANGs are stand-alone systems configured by using the Web-based Aurorean Policy Manager utility. The ANG-1000 is configured using its Web- based configuration utility only. Network settings for the ANG fall into these categories:

HGeneral settings such as the DNS, WINS and NAT servers that remote clients require for name resolution or authentication.

HTunnel protocol (PPTP or IPSec) parameters for authentication, encryption, and compression.

HVirtual subnets containing pools of IP addresses or IPX network numbers that are allocated to remote users when they tunnel into the corporate network.

HRouting protocol (static, RIP, and OSPF) settings for each ANG Ethernet interface.

HSite-to-site tunnel parameters between two Aurorean Network Gateways.

NOTE

The ANG-3000/7000 can also be configured using a floppy disk. Appendix B describes a procedure similar to configuring the ANG using the RiverMaster application. Using the floppy disk method allows an administrator to centrally configure one or more gateways and conveniently distribute that configuration data on floppy disks to remote sites.
