Managing VPN policies

VPN policies define the method that VPN client and a VPN gateway use to authenticate each other and the encryption algorithms that they use to help protect the confidentiality of the data. Administrators create VPN policies and store them on VPN policy servers or deliver them to you as SIS files. You install VPN policies from a VPN policy server in VPN management.
