NETGEAR VPN Configuration
B-15
v1.0, March 2010
c.
Install the IPSec component. You might have the option to install either the VPN adapter
or the IPSec component or both. The VPN adapter is not necessary.
d.
The system should show the
ProSafe
icon (
) in the system tray after rebooting.
e.
Double-click the system tray icon to open the
Security Policy Editor
.
2.
Add a new connection.
a.
Run the NETGEAR ProSafe Security Policy Editor program, and create a VPN
Connection.
b.
From the Edit menu of the Security Policy Editor, click
Add
, and then click
Connection
.
A New Connection listing appears in the list of policies. Rename the new connection so
that it matches the connection name that you entered in the VPN settings of the DG834G
v5 on Gateway A.
Note:
In this example, the connection name used on the client side of the VPN
tunnel is
toDG834G
and it does not have to match the VPN_client
connection name used on the gateway side of the VPN tunnel (see
Figure B-17
) because connection names are irrelevant to how the VPN
tunnel functions.
Tip:
Choose connection names that make sense to the people using and
administrating the VPN.
