The VPN Interface
Click VPN on the left-side of the SonicWALL management station interface. There are four
tabs in the VPN interface:
• Summary
• Configure
• RADIUS
• Certificates
The Summary tab has two sections: the Global IPSec Settings, and the Current
IPSec Security Associations.
Global IPSec Settings
The Global IPSec Settings section displays the Unique Firewall Identifier which
defaults to the serial number of the SonicWALL appliance. You can change the Identifier,
and use it for configuring VPN tunnels. Enable VPN must be selected to allow VPN security
associations. Disable all VPN Windows Networking (NetBIOS) broadcast is also
selected. This check box disables NetBIOS broadcasts for every Security Association
configuration. Enable Fragmented Packet Handling should be selected if the VPN log
report shows the log message "Fragmented IPSec packet dropped". Do not select it until
the VPN tunnel is established and in operation.
Current IPSec Security Associations
This section displays all of the VPN configurations in the SonicWALL appliance. If you click
the name of the security association, the security association settings are displayed. The
Security Association, Group VPN, is a default setting.
