8-38 Virtual Private Networking (Advanced Feature)

The DG834G VPN tunnel network connection fields are defined as follows:

General

These settings identify this policy and determine its major characteristics.

• Policy Name—Enter a unique name to identify this policy. This name is not supplied to the

remote VPN endpoint. It is used only to help you manage the policies.

• Remote VPN Endpoint—If the remote endpoint has a dynamic IP address, select "Dynamic

IP address". No "Address Data" input is required. You can set up multiple remote dynamic IP

policies, but only one such policy can be enabled at a time. Otherwise, select the desired

option (IP address or Domain Name) and enter the address of the remote VPN endpoint to

which you wish to connect.

Note: The remote VPN endpoint must have this VPN Gateway's address entered as its

"Remote VPN Endpoint".

• NETBIOS Enable—check this if you wish NETBIOS traffic to be forwarded over the VPN

tunnel. The NETBIOS protocol is used by Microsoft Networking.

• IKE Keep-alive—Enable this if you wish to ensure that a connection is kept open, or, if that is

not possible, that it is quickly re-established when disconnected.

The Ping IP Address must be associated with the remote endpoint. The remote LAN address

must be used. This IP address will be "pinged" periodically to generate traffic for the VPN

tunnel. The remote keep-alive IP address must be covered by the remote LAN IP range and

must correspond to a device that can respond to ping. The range should be made as narrow as

possible to meet this objective.

Local LAN

This identifies which PCs on your LAN are covered by this policy. For each selection, data must

be provided as follows:

• Single address—enter an IP address in the "Single/Start IP address" field. Typically, this

setting is used when you wish to make a single Server on your LAN available to remote users.

• Range address—enter the starting IP address in the "Single/Start IP address" field, and the

finish IP address in the "Finish IP address" field. This must be an address range used on your

LAN.

• Subnet address—enter an IP address in the "Single/Start IP address" field, and the desired

network mask in the "Subnet Mask" field. The remote VPN endpoint must have these IP

addresses entered as its "Remote" addresses.
