4.6 Initial Setup Wizard - VPN

Figure 79 Initial Setup Wizard VPN
A VPN is a secure, private connection between two end points. An end point could be a VPN gateway
like the Zyxel Device itself or a computer with VPN software installed. Select a VPN wizard type and click
Launch to begin that wizard and end the Initial Setup Wizard with changes saved. Click Exit to leave the
wizard with changes unsaved.
• Select IPSec VPN Settings to create a secure, private connection between two Zyxel Devices. Two
networks (sites) behind the Zyxel Devices can then communicate securely with each other.
Make sure that the settings on both Zyxel Devices are correct and reciprocal. What is a local setting
for one should be the equivalent remote setting on the other. Make sure the pre-shared key,
negotiation mode, encryption, authentication settings, DH key group and so on are the same on both
Zyxel Devices.
Make sure that both Zyxel Devices are able to communicate with each other. Try pinging one
gateway from a computer behind the other.
Make sure that there is not a firewall blocking VPN traffic in front of one of the Zyxel Devices.
• Select IPSec VPN Settings for Configuration Provisioning to create a secure, private connection
between a Zyxel Device and a computer with Zyxel client VPN software installed. See the client VPN
software's help to see how to configure it. The computer with client VPN software installed and the
Zyxel Device can then communicate securely with each other.
Make sure the client VPN software is installed and configured correctly on the computer. See the
client VPN software's help if anything is unclear.
Make sure the VPN settings such as the pre-shared key (or certificate), negotiation mode, encryption,
authentication settings, DH key group on the computer and the Zyxel Device are correct. Make sure
that the client is able to communicate with the Zyxel Device. Try pinging the Zyxel Device from the
client.
