N300 Wireless ADSL2+ Modem Router DGN2200
Diffie-Hellman (DH) Group. The Diffie-Hellman algorithm is used when keys are
•
exchanged. The DH Group setting determines the bit size used in the exchange. This
value needs to match the value used on the remote VPN gateway.
Local Identity Type. Select an option to match the Remote Identity Type setting on the
•
remote VPN endpoint.
- WAN IP Address
Fully Qualified Domain Name. Your domain name.
-
Fully Qualified User Name. Your name, e-mail address, or other ID.
•
Local Identity Data. Enter the data for the local identity type that you selected. (If WAN
•
IP Address is selected, no input is required.)
Remote Identity Type. Select the option that matches the Local Identity Type setting on
•
the remote VPN endpoint.
IP Address. The Internet IP address of the remote VPN endpoint.
-
Fully Qualified Domain Name. The domain name of the remote VPN endpoint.
-
Fully Qualified User Name. The name, email address, or other ID of the remote VPN
-
endpoint.
Remote Identity Data. Enter the data for the remote identity type that you selected. If IP
•
Address is selected, no input is required.
VPN Auto Policy Parameters
Encryption Algorithm. The encryption algorithm used for both IKE and IPSec. This
•
setting has to match the setting used on the remote VPN gateway. DES and 3DES are
supported.
DES. The Data Encryption Standard (DES) processes input data that is 64 bits wide,
-
encrypting these values using a 56-bit key. Faster but less secure than 3DES.
3DES. (Triple DES) achieves a higher level of security by encrypting the data three
-
times using DES with three different, unrelated keys.
Authentication Algorithm. The authentication algorithm used for both IKE and IPSec.
•
This setting has to match the setting used on the remote VPN gateway. Auto, MD5, and
SHA-1 are supported. Auto negotiates with the remote VPN endpoint and is not available
in responder-only mode.
MD5. 128 bits, faster but less secure.
-
SHA-1. 160 bits, slower but more secure. This is the default.
-
Pre-shared Key. The key has to be entered both here and on the remote VPN gateway.
•
SA Life Time. The time interval before the SA (security association) expires. (It is
•
automatically reestablished as required.) While using a short time period (or data amount)
increases security, it also degrades performance. It is common to use periods over an
hour (3600 seconds) for the SA life time. This setting applies to both IKE and IPSec SAs.
Enable IPSec PFS (Perfect Forward Secrecy). If this check box is selected, security is
•
enhanced by ensuring that the key is changed at regular intervals. Also, even if one key is
broken, subsequent keys are no easier to break. (Each key has no relationship to the
previous key.)
