ipsec vip

 

 

Note: The interface to the destination network must be associated with a VPN tunnel through a firewall encryption policy (action must be set to encrypt). The policy determines which VPN tunnel will be selected to forward traffic to the destination. When you create IPSec VIP entries, check the encryption policy on the FortiGate interface to the destination network to ensure that it meets your requirements.

For more information, see “Configuring IPSec virtual IP addresses” on page 274.
