Expert Configuration

5.7.5 Advanced

When to use The Advanced VPN menu gives access to two main pages where the complete IPSec configuration can be done. These pages are component-oriented, as opposed to the application-oriented pages described in “5.7.1 LAN to LAN” on page 173,

“5.7.2 VPN Client” on page 174 and “5.7.3 VPN Server” on page 175. Component- oriented means that a number of components are constructed and subsequently combined.

It is highly recommended to use the application-oriented web pages for VPN configurations. Only in exceptional cases, these pages will not be sufficiently flexible to fulfil your requirements. Only in these cases, the Advanced VPN menu should be used.

How to use Configuring an operational IPSec connection basically consists of the definition of a Peer Profile and a Connection Profile. The Peer represents the remote Security Gateway and all the parameters required to set up an IKE Security Association to this Security Gateway. A Connection represents the IPSec connection and all its associated parameters.

All parameters of an IPSec configuration can be adjusted, so the functionality of these web pages corresponds to the Command Line Interface (CLI). Choices have to be made in accordance to the data known to the user, and the VPN layout.

The Advanced VPN menu should be used by skilled persons only, as these ! pages allow you to manually adjust configuration components that are in

general automatically generated by the SpeedTouch™. Therefore, take care when altering settings in the Advanced VPN menu.
