What you will need

What you will need

•One WatchGuard SOHO with VPN and an IPSec-compliant device.

NOTE While you can create a SOHO to SOHO VPN, you can also create a VPN with a WatchGuard Firebox or other IPSec-compliant devices.

•The following information from your Internet service provider for both devices:

-Static IP address

-Default gateway address

-Primary domain name service (DNS) IP address

-If available, a secondary DNS address

-Domain name

•Network addresses and subnet mask for networks. By default, the Trusted, network address of the SOHO is 192.168.111.0 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

NOTE The internal networks on either end of the VPN tunnel must use different network addresses.

To create an IPSec tunnel between devices you must add information to the configuration files of each that is specific to the site, such as external and trusted IP addresses. It is imperative to keep these addresses straight. WatchGuard recommends making a table of IP addresses such as the one outlined below.
