• See Use Manual Policy to Configure VPN Tunnels on page 131 when the VPN Wizard
and its VPNC defaults are not appropriate for your special circumstances and you have to
specify each phase of the connection.
You manually enter all the authentication and key
parameters. You have more control over the process; however, the process is more
complex, and there are more opportunities for errors or configuration mismatches
between your DGN2200v4 and the corresponding VPN endpoint gateway or client
workstation.
Note: NETGEAR publishes additional interoperability scenarios with
various gateway and client software products. Look on the
NETGEAR website at www.netgear.com for these interoperability
scenarios.
