VPN Log On

VPN Log On starts an IPSec session. IPSec sessions are initiated through Security Associations (SAs), which allow peers to negotiate a common set of security attributes that assures source authenticity, data integrity and confidentiality of IP packets, providing the level of security required by Virtual Private Networks (VPNs).

To start an IPSec session:

1.Click VPN Log On on the left navigation pane of the Router Information page. This displays the VPN Log On page.

2.For Feature, click enable.

3.For Available IPSEC tunnels, select the tunnel you wish to use for the IPSec session.

4.Click log on corresponding to the tunnel you selected.

You must keep the VPN Logon window open to remain logged into the VPN over IPSec. Do not close the window until you have finished using the VPN Log On.
