3.2 VPN Wizard Overview
The web configurator contains a “wizard” feature to help you easily set up a basic IPSec VPN
connnection.
From the left-side navigation menu, select SECURITY then click the VPN Wizard menu
item
to open the VPN Wizard screen. Use this wizard to configure a VPN connection that
uses a pre-shared key. If you want to set the rule to use a certificate, please go to the VPN
Config screens for configuration. See Section 3.2.1 on page 57.
3.2.1 VPN Wizard Gateway Setting
Use this screen to name the VPN gateway policy (IKE SA) and identify the IPSec routers at
either end of the VPN tunnel.

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Gateway Policy
Property
Name Type up to 32 characters to identify this VPN gateway policy. You may use any
character, including spaces, but the LAN-Cell drops trailing spaces.
My LAN-Cell Enter the WAN IP address or the domain name of your LAN-Cell or leave the field set
to 0.0.0.0.
The following applies if the My LAN-Cell field is configured as 0.0.0.0:
When the WAN interface operation mode is set to Active/Passive, the LAN-Cell
uses the IP address (static or dynamic) of the WAN interface that is in use.
When the WAN interface operation mode is set to Active/Active, the LAN-Cell uses
the IP address (static or dynamic) of the primary (highest priority) WAN interface to
set up the VPN tunnel as long as the corresponding WAN or CELL connection is up.
If the corresponding WAN or CELL connection goes down, the LAN-Cell uses the IP
address of the other WAN interface.
If both WAN connections go down, the LAN-Cell uses the dial backup IP address for
the VPN tunnel when using dial backup or the LAN IP address when using traffic
redirect. See the chapter on WAN for details on dial backup and traffic redirect.
