11. Virtual Private Network (VPN)

11.1 Local VPN

Configure Local VPN, go to: Users >> Authentication.
The system is equipped with IPSec VPN feature. To utilize IPSec VPN supported by Microsoft Windows
XP SP2 (with patch) and Windows 2000 operating systems, the system implements IPSec VPN
tunneling technology between client's windows devices and the system itself regardless of wired or
wireless network.
By pushing down ActiveX to the client's Windows device from the system, no extra client software is
required to be installed except ActiveX, in which a so-called "clientless" IPSec VPN setting is then
configured automatically. At the end of this setup, a build-in IPSec VPN feature will be enabled and
ready to serve once it is launched for setup. The goal of this design is to eliminate the configuration
difficulty from IPSec VPN users. At the client side, the IPSec VPN implementation of the system is based
on ActiveX and the built-in IPSec VPN client of Windows OS.
• ActiveX Component
The ActiveX is a software component running inside Internet Explorer. The ActiveX component can
be checked by the following windows.
