DESCRIPTION

 

 

 

 

NAT Traversal

This function is available if the VPN protocol is ESP.

 

 

Select this check box if you want to set up a VPN tunnel when there are NAT

 

 

routers between the ZyXEL Device and remote IPSec router. The remote IPSec

 

 

router must also enable NAT traversal, and the NAT routers have to forward UDP

 

 

port 500 packets to the remote IPSec router behind the NAT router.

 

Name

Type up to 32 characters to identify this VPN policy. You may use any character,

 

 

including spaces, but the ZyXEL Device drops trailing spaces.

 

IPSec Key Mode

Select IKE or Manual from the drop-down list box. IKE provides more protection

 

 

so it is generally recommended. Manual is a useful option for troubleshooting if

 

 

you have problems using IKE key management.

 

Negotiation Mode

Select Main or Aggressive from the drop-down list box. Multiple SAs connecting

 

 

through a secure gateway must have the same negotiation mode.

 

Encapsulation

Select Tunnel mode or Transport mode from the drop-down list box.

 

Mode

 

 

DNS Server (for

If there is a private DNS server that services the VPN, type its IP address here.

 

IPSec VPN)

The ZyXEL Device assigns this additional DNS server to the ZyXEL Device's

 

 

DHCP clients that have IP addresses in this IPSec rule's range of local addresses.

 

 

A DNS server allows clients on the VPN to find other computers and servers on

 

 

the VPN by their (private) domain names.

 

Local

Local IP addresses must be static and correspond to the remote IPSec router's

 

 

configured remote IP addresses.

 

 

Two active SAs can have the same configured local or remote IP address, but not

 

 

both. You can configure multiple SAs between the same local and remote IP

 

 

addresses, as long as only one is active at any time.

 

 

In order to have more than one active rule with the Secure Gateway Address

 

 

field set to 0.0.0.0, the ranges of the local IP addresses cannot overlap between

 

 

rules.

 

 

If you configure an active rule with 0.0.0.0 in the Secure Gateway Address field

 

 

and the LAN’s full IP address range as the local IP address, then you cannot

 

 

configure any other active rules with the Secure Gateway Address field set to

 

 

0.0.0.0.

 

Local Address

Use the drop-down menu to choose Single, Range, or Subnet. Select Single for

 

Type

a single IP address. Select Range for a specific range of IP addresses. Select

 

 

Subnet to specify IP addresses on a network by their subnet mask.

 

IP Address Start

When the Local Address Type field is configured to Single, enter a (static) IP

 

 

address on the LAN behind your ZyXEL Device. When the Local Address Type

 

 

field is configured to Range, enter the beginning (static) IP address, in a range of

 

 

computers on your LAN behind your ZyXEL Device. When the Local Address

 

 

Type field is configured to Subnet, this is a (static) IP address on the LAN behind

 

 

your ZyXEL Device.

 

End / Subnet Mask

When the Local Address Type field is configured to Single, this field is N/A.

 

 

When the Local Address Type field is configured to Range, enter the end (static)

 

 

IP address, in a range of computers on the LAN behind your ZyXEL Device. When

 

 

the Local Address Type field is configured to Subnet, this is a subnet mask on

 

 

the LAN behind your ZyXEL Device.
