VPN settings
The VPN Settings page allows you to add and edit IPSec, L2TP over IPSec, and PPTP
connections for the router. When creating VPN connections, remember that both ends of the
connection must be configured in the same way.
When you click Add on this page, the VPN connection page opens, enabling connection
details to be configured. The VPN connection details depend on the protocol selected.
Note
Adding or modifying VPN configurations causes the router to reset active VPN tunnels. The
router automatically reconnects site-to-site VPN tunnels after the configuration changes are
saved. Client VPN tunnels may require manual reconnection.
IPSec settings
The router supports the IPSec tunneling protocol. It allows users to create multiple secure IPSec
tunnels to remote end points. To establish an IPSec tunnel, the user needs to enable the feature,
and enter inbound and outbound addresses for the IPSec tunnel. This router supports MD5 and
SHA1 hash algorithm, and DES, 3DES, AES128, AES192, and AES 256 encryption algorithms.
Note
Enabling IPSec VPN disables pass-through to IPSec and L2TP over IPSec Virtual Servers on the
LAN. Pass-through outbound from clients on the LAN to servers on the Internet is unaffected.
The VPN connection page displays when you click the Add button on the VPN Settings page.
From the VPN connection page you can configure detailed parameters for your IPSec VPN
connection. A maximum of five IPSec connections can be defined.
