Creating a VPN Tunnel
Using 812 Default Values
To enable a VPN, enter the enable tunnel command. To disable a VPN, enter the
disable tunnel command.
Before you attempt to set or change any parameter for a VC, you must first disable
the VC using the DISABLE VC <vc_name> command. If you attempt to set or
change VC values while the VC is enabled, an erroneous error message (telling
you that you must first disable the VC) will display. Whether you disable first or
not, the change will take effect.
Before you attempt to set or change tunnel parameters via the OCR 812 web
configurator, you must first disable the tunnel using the DISABLE TUNNEL
<tunnel_name> command (if you do not follow this procedure, your changes
will not take effect, and no error message will display). You do not need to disable
a tunnel before making changes via the CLI, but it is recommended that you do so
as a matter of good practice.
You can display a list of the tunnels created on the OCR 812, and their status
(active or inactive) by entering the list tunnels command.
To check the parameters of a tunnel, enter the show tunnel command. To delete
a tunnel, enter the delete tunnel command.
To add a VPN tunnel using 812 default values, enter the add tunnel command.
