Add/Edit Tunnel – Routes
Adding routes allows you to configure what types of network traffic from the local host or hosts will be
allowed through the tunnel.
Click
Add Route
to configure a new route. You will need to input the following information, defined by the
remote network:
•
Network Address
– This is the network address that is the destination of the route. This should be set to
the network address at the remote side of the tunnel.
•
Netmask
– This is the corresponding subnet mask of the network being defined (Default: 255.255.255.0).
You can set the tunnel to connect to a range of IP addresses or to a single IP address. For example, you could
input
192.168.0.0
and
255.255.255.0
to connect your tunnel to all the addresses of the remote network in
the
192.168.0.x
range. Alternatively, you could select a single address by inputting that address along with a
Netmask of
255.255.255.255
.
Add/Edit Tunnel – Keep Alive
GRE keep-alive packets can be enabled to be sent through the tunnel in order to monitor the status of the
tunnel and more accurately determine if the tunnel is alive or not.
GRE keep-alive packets may be sent from both sides of a tunnel, or from just one side.
Enabled
: Select to enable GRE Keep Alive to continually send keep-alive packets to the remote peer.
