Remote
ID/Remote
Certificate
These optional fields become available when X.509 is selected as the Peplink
Balance’s VPN authentication method, as explained above. To authenticate VPN
connections using X.509 certificates, copy and paste certificate details into these
fields. To get more information on a listed X.509 certificate, click the Show Details

Allow Shared
Remote ID
When this option is enabled, the router will allow multiple peers to run using the
same remote ID.
NAT Mode
Check this box to allow the local DHCP server to assign an IP address to the
remote peer. When NAT Mode is enabled, all remote traffic over the VPN will be
tagged with the assigned IP address using network address translation.
Remote IP
Address / Host
Names
(Optional)
If NAT Mode is not enabled, you can enter a remote peer’s WAN IP address or
hostname(s) here. If the remote uses more than one address, enter only one of
them here. Multiple hostnames are allowed and can be separated by a space
character or carriage return. Dynamic-DNS host names are also accepted.
This field is optional. With this field filled, the Peplink Balance will initiate
connection to each of the remote IP addresses until it succeeds in making a
connection. If the field is empty, the Peplink Balance will wait for connection from
the remote peer. Therefore, at least one of the two VPN peers must specify this
value. Otherwise, VPN connections cannot be established.

Custom is selected, enter an outgoing port number from 1 to 65535.
