Configuring Virtual Private Networking (VPN)
Configure IPsec tunnel default action
Like a normal IP routing set-up, IPSec Tunnels have a default configuration that is applied if no specific
tunnel can be found. This is useful when, for example, you want to have a number of remote users
connect via a secure channel, for example, to access company financial information, but also still allow
general remote access to other specific servers on your network or the Internet.
