Field Description

General These settings identify this policy and determine its major characteristics.

policy name. This name is not supplied to the remote VPN endpoint. It is

only used to help you identify VPN policies.

IKE Policy The existing IKE policies are presented in a drop-down list.

Note: Create the IKE policy BEFORE creating a VPN - Auto policy.

wish to connect. The remote VPN endpoint must have this FVS318v3’s

Local IP values entered as its Remote VPN Endpoint.

• By its Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) — your domain name.

• By its IP Address.

you wish to connect.

SA Life Time The duration of the Security Association before it expires.

One of these can be set without setting the other.

IPSec PFS If enabled, security is enhanced by ensuring that the key is changed at

regular intervals. Also, even if one key is broken, subsequent keys are no

easier to break. Each key has no relationship to the previous key.

PFS Key Group If PFS is enabled, this setting determines the DH group bit size used in the

key exchange. This must match the value used on the remote gateway.
