The OnSite is referred to as the Local or “Left” host, and the remote gateway
is referred to as the Remote or “Right” host. If left and right are not directly
connected, then you must also specify a NextHop IP address. The next hop for
the left host is the IP address of the router to which the OnSite sends packets
to get them delivered to the right host. The next hop for the right host is the IP
address of the router to which the remote host or gateway running IPsec sends
packets when delivering them to the left host. Also, because the OnSite can
have multiple Ethernet connections and IP addresses, you need to enter the
appropriate IP address and hostname in the “ID” and IP Address” fields for
the “Local (‘Left’)” host.
See Table 1-25, “Field and Menu Options for Configuring a VPN
Connection,” on page 55 for what to enter on the screen. Work with the user
who needs to make the VPN connection to make sure the information matches
exactly on both ends.
