IPsec HostThe router is authenticated by a remote gateway with a
username and password combination. In this mode, the router acts as a VPN
Client of the remote gateway.

Configuring VPN Policies
To configure a VPN policy:
STEP 1 Choose VPN > IPsec > Advanced VPN Setup.
STEP 2 In the VPN Policy Table, click Add.
STEP 3 Enter a unique name to identify the policy.
STEP 4 Choose the Policy Type:
Auto Policy—Some parameters for the VPN tunnel are generated
automatically. This requires using the IKE (Internet Key Exchange) protocol to
perform negotiations between the two VPN Endpoints.
Manual Policy—All settings (including the keys) for the VPN tunnel are
manually input for each end point. No third-party server or organization is
involved.
To create an Auto VPN Policy, you need to first create an IKE policy and then add
the corresponding Auto Policy for that IKE Policy. (See Auto Policy Parameters,
page 113.)
STEP 5 In the Remote Endpoint field, select the type of identifier that you want to provide
for the gateway at the remote endpoint: IP Address or FQDN (Fully Qualified
Domain Name).
STEP 6 In the NetBIOS field, check the Enable box to allow NetBIOS broadcasts to travel
over the VPN tunnel, or uncheck this box to disable NetBIOS broadcasts over the
VPN tunnel. For client policies, the NetBIOS feature is available by default.
