ProCurve VPN Client and ProCurve Secure Router 7000dl Series - Application Note
In Figure 1 on the right is a user requiring access to the remote network (10.24.25.0/24).
The ProCurve 7000dl router and ProCurve VPN client software will be setup using “mode
config”. “Mode config” allows the ProCurve 7000dl series to dynamically assign an IP
address to the VPN client. (This is not address assigned to the client manually or DHCP
but an additional address for the tunnel.) The dynamic IP address range for this example
will be 192.168.4.1 through 192.168.4.5. On the right is a ProCurve 7000dl router with a
WAN IP address of 172.16.1.2 and a mask of 255.255.255.252. The LAN network behind
the ProCurve 7000dl router is also a private network 192.168.100.0 with a mask of
255.255.255.0.
