Enter the Internet IP address of the remote party in The remote party's IP address field.
In this example, enter: 209.0.0.1
The Endpoint ID is used to authenticate the remote party to the SG unit. The remote
party's ID is optional if it has a static IP address and uses Preshared Secrets for
authentication. It becomes a required field if the remote party has a dynamic IP or DNS
hostname address or if RSA Digital Key Signatures are used for authentication. It is
optional in this example, because the remote party has a static IP address. If the remote
party is a SG unit, it must have the form abcd@efgh. If the remote party is not a SG unit,
refer the interoperability documents on the SG Knowledge Base
(http://www.cyberguard.com/snapgear/knowledgebase.html) to determine what form it
must take. In this example leave the field blank.
