When turning on a VPN Gateway
the very first time, the Setup utility
starts up automatically. The Setup
utility is used for performing a basic
configuration of the VPN Gateway.
The Setup utility first presents you with
the choice of setting up the NVG as
a single device, or to add the VPN
Gateway to an existing cluster.
If you perform a reinstallation of the
NVG software, you must also enter the
Setup Utility after the VPN Gateway
has rebooted.
The source IP address of a frame.
A VPN Gateway that depends on a
master VPN Gateway in the same
cluster for proper configuration.
A network monitoring and control
protocol. Data is passed from SNMP
agents, which are hardware and/or
software processes reporting activity in
each network device (a VPN Gateway,
for example), to the workstation
console (or SNMP manager) used
to oversee the network. The SNMP
agents return information contained
in a MIB (Management Information
Base), which is a data structure that
defines what information is obtainable
from the device.
A generic, proxy protocol for
TCP/IP-based networking applications.
The SOCKS protocol provides a
flexible framework for developing
secure communications by easily
integrating other security technologies,
for example, SSL. SOCKS includes
two components, the SOCKS
server and the SOCKS client. The
SOCKS server is implemented at the
application layer, while the SOCKS
client is implemented between the
application and transport layers. The
basic purpose of the protocol is to
enable hosts on one side of a SOCKS
server to gain access to hosts on the
other side of a SOCKS server, without
requiring direct IP reachability.
