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.

enter an outgoing port number from 1 to 65535.
