The IKE Policy Configuration fields are defined in the following table.

Table 8-1. IKE Policy Configuration Fields

Field Description
General These settings identify this polic y and determine its major characteristics.
Policy Name The descriptive name of the IKE policy. Each policy should have a unique
policy name. This name is not supplied to the remote VPN endpoint. It is
only used to help you identify IKE policies.
Direction/Type This setting is used when determining if the IKE policy matches the current
traffic. The drop-down menu includes the following:
Initiator – Outgoing connections are allowed, but incoming are blocked.
Responder – Incoming connections are allowed, but outgoing are
blocked.
Both Directions – Both outgoing and incoming conne ctions are allowed.
Remote Access – This is to allow only incoming client connections,
where the IP ad d r ess of the remote clie n t is un known.
If Remote Access is selected, the “Exchange Mode” MUST be
“Aggressive,” and the ‘Identities’ below (both Local and Remote) MUST
be “Name.” On the matching VPN Policy, the IP addre ss of the remote
VPN endpoint should be set to 0.0.0.0.
Exchange Mode Main Mode or Aggressive Mode. This setting must match the setting used
on the remote VPN endpoint.
Main Mode is slower but more secure. Also, the “Identity” below must be
established by IP address.
Aggressive Mode is faster but less secure. The “Identity” below can be by
name (host name, domain name, e-mail address, and so on) instead of
by IP address.
Local These parameters apply to the Local FWG114P v2 Wireless Firewall/Print
Server.
Local Iden tity Type Use this field to identify the local FWG114P v2. You can choose one of the
following four options from the drop-down list:

By a Fully Qualified User Name -- your name, E-mail address, or
other ID.
