A list of currently active VPN tunnels is displayed in this section. The table lists the name of the VPN

Configuring Group VPN on the SonicWALL
SonicWALL VPN defaults to a Group VPN setting. This feature facilitates the set up and deployment of
multiple VPN clients by the administrator of the SonicWALL. Security settings can now be exported to the
remote client and imported into the remote VPN client settings. Group VPN allows for easy deployment
of multiple VPN clients making it unnecessary to individually configure remote VPN clients. Group VPN
is only available for VPN clients and it is recommended to use XAUTH/RADIUS or third party certificates
in conjunction with the Group VPN for added security.
The default GroupVPN configuration allows you to support SonicWALL Global VPN Clients without any
further editing of the VPN policy, except to check the Enable box for GroupVPN in the VPN Policies table.
You can choose from IKE using Preshared Secret or IKE using 3rd Party Certificates for your IPSec
Keying Mode.
Note:
GroupVPN is the default policy name and cannot be changed.
Configuring GroupVPN with IKE using Preshared Secret
To edit the default settings for Group VPN, follow these steps:
