IKE Policy Configuration Fields

 

 

 

Field

 

Description

 

 

 

General

 

These settings identify this policy 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 connections are allowed.

 

 

• Remote Access – This is to allow only incoming client connections,

 

 

where the IP address of the remote client is unknown.

 

 

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 address 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 Identity 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 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.
