10 Configuring VPN
The chapter contains instructions for configuring VPN connections using
automatic keying and manual keys.
10.1 Default Parameters
The router is pre-configured with a default set of proposals/connections.
They cover the most commonly used sets of parameters, required for
typical deployment scenarios. It is recommended that you use these pre-
configured proposals/connections to simplify VPN connection setup. The
default parameters provided in the router are as follows:
Default Connections
Each connection represents a rule that can be applied on traffic originating
from / terminating at the security gateway. It contains the parameters:
local/remote IP-Addresses and ports.
Table 10.1 lists the default connections that are provisioned on the
gateway:

Proposals
Each proposal represents a set of authentication/encryption parameters.
Once configured, a proposal can be tied to a connection. Upon session
establishment, one of the proposals specified is selected and used for the
tunnel. Multiple proposals can be specified for a connection. If you do not
specify the proposal to be used for a connection, all the pre-configured
proposals will be included for that connection.
