Transferring a Security Policy to Another Client

This section explains how to export and import a security policy as an .spd file so that an existing

NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Client configuration can be copied to other PCs running the NETGEAR

ProSafe VPN Client.

Exporting a Security Policy

The following procedure (Figure 5-20) enables you to export a security policy as an .spd file.

Figure 5-20: Exporting a security policy

Note: While your PC is connected to a remote LAN through a VPN, you might not have

normal Internet access. If this is the case, you will need to close the VPN connection in

order to have normal Internet access.

Step 1: Select Export Security Policy from

the File pulldown.

Step 2: Click Export once you decide the name of the file

and directory where you want to store the client policy.

In this example, the exported policy is named policy.spd

and is being stored on the C drive.
