pull-down menu, specify one
of the following authentication types to be used in verifying credentials of the remote VPN
gateways:
–

).
–

selected, the DGFV338 will first check in the User Database to see if the user
credentials are available. If the user account is not present, the DGFV338 will then
connect to the RADIUS server (see
“RADIUS Client Configuration” on page 5-30
).

and

fields, type in the information user name and password
associated with the IKE policy for authenticating to the remote gateway.
