Chapter 3: Accessing a Virtual Console Server via the Web Manager
Definition
Enter the required address or text for each of the four fields for both Remote
Side and Local Side: ID: This is the hostname that a local system and a
remote system use for IPSec negotiation and authentication. It can be a fully
qualified domain name preceded by @. For example,
hostname@xyz.com
The router through which the virtual console server (on the left side) or the
remote host (on the right side) sends packets to the host on the other side.
SubNet: The netmask of the subnetwork where the host resides. Use CIDR
notation. The IP number followed by a slash and the number of 'one' bits in
the binary notation of the netmask. For example, 192.168.0.0/24 indicates
an IP address where the first 24 bits are used as the network address. This
is the same as 255.255.255.0.
For IPSec(VPN) authentication, you need to generate a public key for the
virtual console server and find out the key used on the remote gateway.
Copy and paste for copying the RSA key from another source is supported.
Pre-shared password between left and right users.
IP Address: The IP address of the host. NextHop:
