Gateway Select the remote gateway to assign to this tunnel. A remote gateway
provides a connection to another network or an individual client on the
Internet. You define remote gateways on the Phase 1 tab. For details, see
“Phase 1” on page 250 .
Select the name of an existing Phase 1 configuration from the Dialup User
section of the list if the tunnel will be used to connect a single remote VPN
peer that uses either a dynamic IP address or a static IP address that is not
used during the peer identification process. For information about how to
create a Phase 1 Dialup User configuration, see “Dialup VPN” on page 283 .
If the tunnel is to connect a static remote gateway, select the name of an
existing Phase 1 configuration from the Static IP Address section of the list.
See “Gateway-to-gateway VPN” on page 282 for information about how to
define a Phase 1 Static IP Address configuration. You can associate up to
three static remote gateways with the same tunnel. Multiple static remote
gateways are needed to configure IPSec redundancy. Use the add and
subtract buttons beside the field to increase or decrease the number of static
remote gateways associated with this VPN tunnel. For information about
IPSec redundancy, see “Redundant IPSec VPNs” on page 291 .
If the FortiGate unit will get the IP address of the remote VPN peer by looking
up a domain name, select the name of an existing Phase 1 configuration from
the Dynamic DNS section of the list. For information about how to create a
Phase 1 Dynamic DNS configuration, see “Dynamic DNS VPN” on page 283 .
Concentrator Select a concentrator if you want to add the tunnel to an existing VPN
concentrator. Concentrators are employed in hub and spoke VPN
configurations. You define concentrators on the Concentrator tab. for details,
see “Concentrator” on page 259 .
