Field

 

Description

 

 

 

Remote

 

These parameters apply to the target remote FVS114, VPN gateway, or

 

 

VPN client.

Remote Identity Type

Use this field to identify the remote FVS114. You can choose one of the

 

 

following four options from the drop-down list:

 

 

• By its Internet (WAN) port IP address.

 

 

• By its Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) — your domain name.

 

 

• By a Fully Qualified User Name — your name, E-mail address, or

 

 

other ID.

 

 

• By DER ASN.1 DN — the binary DER encoding of your ASN.1 X.500

 

 

Distinguished Name.

Remote Identity Data

This field lets you identify the target remote FVS114 by name.

 

 

IKE SA Parameters

These parameters determine the properties of the IKE Security

 

 

Association.

 

 

Encryption Algorithm

Choose the encryption algorithm for this IKE policy:

 

 

• DES is the default

 

 

• 3DES is more secure

Authentication Algorithm

If you enable Authentication Header (AH), this menu lets you to select from

 

 

these authentication algorithms:

 

 

• MD5 — the default

 

 

SHA-1 — more secure

 

 

Authentication Method

You may select Pre-Shared Key or RSA Signature.

 

 

Pre-Shared Key

Specify the key according to the requirements of the Authentication

 

 

Algorithm you selected.

 

 

• For MD5, the key length should be 16 bytes.

 

 

• For SHA-1, the key length should be 20 bytes.

RSA Signature

RSA Signature requires a certificate.

 

 

Diffie-Hellman (D-H) Group

The DH Group setting determines the bit size used in the key exchange.

 

 

This must match the value used on the remote VPN gateway or client.

 

 

 

SA Life Time

 

The amount of time in seconds before the Security Association expires;

 

 

over an hour (3600) is common.

 

 

 

VPN Policy Configuration for Auto Key Negotiation
