Click Add New Connection to create IPSec connections.
VPN Connection Setting
Active: Select Yes to activate the tunnel.
Connection Name: A given name for the connection (e.g. “connection to office”).
Interface: Select the set used interface for the IPSec connection, when you select EWAN interface, the IPSec
tunnel would transmit data via this interface to connect to the remote peer.
Remote Gateway IP: The WAN IP address of the remote VPN gateway that is to be connected, establishing a
VPN tunnel.
Local Access Range: Set the IP address or subnet of the local network.
Single IP: The IP address of the local host, for establishing an IPSec connection between a security
gateway and a host (network-to-host).
Subnet: The subnet of the local network, for establishing an IPSec tunnel between
a pair of security
gateways (network-to-network)
Remote Access Range: Set the IP address or subnet of the remote network.
Single IP: The IP address of the local host, for establishing an IPSec connection between a security
gateway and a host (network-to-host). If the remote peer is a host, select Single Address.
Subnet: The subnet of the local network, for establishing an IPSec tunnel between a pair of security
gateways (network-to-network), If the remote peer is a network, select Subnet.
IKE Mode: IKE, Internet Key Exchange, is the mechanism to negotiate and exchange parameters and keys
between IPSec peers to establish security associations(SA). Select Main or Aggressive mode.
Pre-Shared Key: This is for the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) protocol, a string from 4 to 128 characters. Both
sides should use the same key. IKE is used to establish a shared security policy and authenticated keys for
services (such as IPSec) that require a key. Before any IPSec traffic can be passed, each router must be able
to verify the identity of its peer. This can be done by manually entering the pre-shared key into both sides
(router or hosts).
Local ID Type and Remote ID Type: When the mode of IKE is aggressive, Local and Remote peers can be
identified by other IDs.
IDContent: Enter IDContent the name you want to identify when the Local and Remote Type are Domain
Name; Enter IDContent IP address you want to identify when the Local and Remote Type are IP addresses
