Definition
Any descriptive name you want to use to identify this
connection such as "MYCOMPANYDOMAIN-VPN."
The authentication protocol used, either "ESP"
(Encapsulating Security Payload) or "AH" (Authentication
Header).
Authentication method used, either "RSA Public Keys" or
"Shared Secret."
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 IP address of the host.
The router through which the CS (on the left side) or the
remote host (on the right side) sends packets to the host on
the other side.
The netmask of the subnetwork where the host resides.
Note: 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.
You need to generate a public key for the CS and find out the
key used on the remote gateway. You can use copy and paste
to enter the key in the "RSA Key" field.
Pre-shared password between left and right users.
