Do the following when you set Authentication Key to Pre-shared Key.
For IP, type the IP address of the computer with which you will make the VPN
connection. If you configure this field to 0.0.0.0 or leave it blank, the ZyWALL will
use the address in the Primary Remote Gateway field (refer to the Primary
Remote Gateway field description).
For DNS or E-mail, type a domain name or e-mail address by which to identify the
remote IPSec router. Use up to 31 ASCII characters including spaces, although
trailing spaces are truncated. The domain name or e-mail address is for
identification purposes only and can be any string.
It is recommended that you type an IP address other than 0.0.0.0 or use the DNS
or E-mail ID type in the following situations:
1. When there is a NAT router between the two IPSec routers.
2. When you want the ZyWALL to distinguish between VPN connection requests
that come in from remote IPSec routers with dynamic WAN IP addresses.
Do the following when you set Authentication Key to Certificate.
1. For IP, type the IP address from the subject alternative name field of the
certificate the remote IPSec router will use for this VPN connection. If you
configure this field to 0.0.0.0 or leave it blank, the ZyWALL will use the address in
the Primary Remote Gateway field (refer to the Primary Remote Gateway field
description).
2. For DNS or E-mail, type the domain name or e-mail address from the subject
alternative name field of the certificate the remote IPSec router will use for this
VPN connection.
3. For Subject Name, type the subject name of the certificate the remote IPSec
router will use for this VPN connection. Use up to255 ASCII characters including
spaces.
4. For Any, the peer Content field is not available.
5. Regardless of how you configure the ID Type and Content fields, two active
IPSec SAs cannot have both the local and remote IP address ranges overlap
between rules.
Select this check box to activate extended authentication.
