Instructions that tell how to configure a VPN tunnel between a

Special considerations
Think about these points before you configure your WatchGuard
SOHO 6 Wireless VPN network:
• You can connect a maximum of six SOHO 6 Wireless
appliances together in a star configuration. To configure
more than one VPN tunnel, a WatchGuard Firebox II/III
with the WatchGuard VPN Manager is necessary.
• The two appliances that make a VPN tunnel must each have
a static IP address. If an appliance has a dynamic IP address,
packets sent from the other end of the tunnel will not get to
their destination. See "Network addressing" on page 37 for
more information about dynamic IP addresses.
• The two appliances must use the same encryption method.
The alternatives are DES or 3DES. When two Microsoft
Windows NT
must be in the same Microsoft Windows domain or be
trusted domains. This is a Microsoft Networking design
implementation and not a limitation of the SOHO 6 Wireless.
