Peer IP
Addresses / Host
Names
Enter the remote peer’s WAN IP address(es) or host name(s) here. Dynamic-
DNS host names are accepted.
This field is optional. With this field filled, the Pepwave MAX will initiate
connection to each of the remote IP addresses until success. If the field is
empty, the Pepwave MAX will wait for connection from the remote peer.
Therefore, at least one side of the two VPN peers has to have the field filled.
Otherwise, VPN connection cannot be established.
Enter one IP address or host name per line.
WAN Connection Priority
WAN Connection
Priority
You can specify the priority of the WAN connections to be used for making VPN
connections. WAN connections set to OFF will never be used. Only available
WAN connections with the highest priority will be utilized.
10.2 Link Failure Detection
Link Failure Detection
Link Failure
Detection Time
The bonded Site-to-Site VPN can detect routing failures on the path between two
sites over each WAN connection. Failed WAN connections will not be used to
route VPN traffic. Health check packets are sent to the peer to detect any failure.
The more frequent checks it sends, the shorter detection time, but the higher
bandwidth overhead will be consumed.
When Recommended is selected, a health check packet is sent out every 5
seconds, and the expected detection time is 15 seconds.
When Fast is selected, a health check packet is sent out every 3 seconds, and
the expected detection time is 6 seconds.
When Faster is selected, a health check packet is sent out every 1 second, and
the expected detection time is 2 seconds.
When Extreme is selected, a health check packet is sent out every 0.1 second,
and the expected detection time is under 1 second.
By default, Recommended is selected.
Important Note to Users Upgrading to Firmware 5.1+
The Site-to-Site VPN in firmware 5.1+ requires the same firmware version for all devices in the VPN
network. Please make sure that both ends of the Pepwave MAX (or Peplink devices) are running with
the same firmware version.
