B.2.1 Configuring a VPN Tunnel Between Two Access Points
The access point can connect to a non-AP device supporting IPSec, such as a Cisco VPN device -
labeled as "Device #2".
For this usage scenario, the following components are required:
• 2 access points (either a Motorola AP-7131, AP-5131 or AP-5181 model access point)
• 1 PC on each side of the access point’s LAN.
To configure a VPN tunnel between two access points:
1. Ensure the WAN ports are connected via the internet.
2. On access point #1, select WAN -> VPN from the main menu tree.
3. Click Add to add the tunnel to the list.
4. Enter a tunnel name (tunnel names do not need to match).
