How to Add and Configure a Connection
You can create and configure multiple connections for your security policy.
Before you can configure a connection, make sure that you have identification information for the
remote party, such as network IP address, domain name, or email address. If the remote party (user
or network) is protected by a secure IPSec-compliant gateway device, obtain that gateway's IP
address, too.
