Configuring VPN Policies

To open this page: From the VPN > IPsec > Advanced VPN Setup page, in the
VPN Policy table, click Add or select an existing policy and click Edit.
To create an Auto VPN Policy, you need to first create an IKE policy and then add the
corresponding Auto Policy for that IKE Policy.
At the top of this page, enter these settings:
• Policy Name—Enter a unique name to identify the policy.
• Policy Type—Choose one of the following options:
- Auto Policy—Some parameters for the VPN tunnel are generated
automatically. This requires using the IKE (Internet Key Exchange)
protocol to perform negotiations between the two VPN Endpoints.
- Manual Policy—All settings (including the keys) for the VPN tunnel are
manually input for each end point. No third-party server or organization is
involved.
• Remote Endpoint—Select the type of identifier that you want to provide for
the gateway at the remote endpoint: IP Address or FQDN (Fully Qualified
Domain Name). Then enter the identifier in the space provided.
• NETBIOS—Check the Enable box to allow NetBIOS broadcasts to travel
over the VPN tunnel, or uncheck this box to disable NetBIOS broadcasts over
the VPN tunnel. For client policies, the NetBIOS feature is available by
default.
