VPN spoke general configuration steps

252
A remote VPN peer that functions as a spoke requires the following configuration:
• A tunnel (AutoIKE phase 1 and phase 2 configuration or manual key configuration)
for the hub.
• The source address of the local VPN spoke.
• The destination address of each remote VPN spoke.
• A separate outbound encrypt policy for each remote VPN spoke. These policies
allow the local VPN spoke to initiate encrypted connections.
• A single inbound encrypt policy. This policy allows the local VPN spoke to accept
encrypted connections.
To create a VPN spoke configuration
1 Configure a tunnel between the spoke and the hub.
Choose between a manual key tunnel or an AutoIKE tunnel.
