Chapter 20 IPSec VPN

•In any VPN connection, you have to select address objects to specify the local policy and remote policy. You should set up the address objects first.

•In a VPN gateway, you can select an Ethernet interface, virtual Ethernet interface, VLAN interface, or virtual VLAN interface to specify what address the ZyWALL uses as its IP address when it establishes the IKE SA. You should set up the interface first. See Chapter 7 on page 103.

•In a VPN gateway, you can enable extended authentication. If the ZyWALL is in server mode, you should set up the authentication method (AAA server) first. The authentication method specifies how the ZyWALL authenticates the remote IPSec router. See Chapter 31 on page 400.

•In a VPN gateway, the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router can use certificates to authenticate each other. Make sure the ZyWALL and the remote IPSec router will trust each other’s certificates. See Chapter 33 on page 413.
