4. Enter a Pre-shared Key; in this example, we are using r3m0+eC1ient, which must also be
entered in the VPN client software. The key length must be 8 characters minimum and cannot
exceed 49 characters.
5. Choose which WAN port to use as the VPN tunnel end point.
Note: If you are using a dual WAN rollover configuration, after completing the wiz-
ard, you must manually update the VPN policy to enable VPN rollover. This
allows the VPN tunnel to roll over when the WAN Mode is set to Auto Roll-
over. The wizard will not set up the VPN policy with rollover enabled.
6. The public Remote and Local Identifier are automatically filled in by pre-pending the first
several letters of the model number of your gateway to form FQDNs used in the VPN policies.
In this example, we are using GW1_remote.com, and GW1_local.com.
Tip: To assure tunnels stay active, after completing the wizard, manually edit the
VPN policy to enable keepalive which periodically sends ping packets to the
host on the peer side of the network to keep the tunnel alive.
7. Click Apply to save your settings. The VPN Policies screen shows that the policy is now
enabled. (To view or modify the VPN policy, see
