Setting up VPN Manager on an Edge with dynamic
external IP address
If the IP address assigned to your Firebox X Edge external interface
is dynamic, use this procedure to configure it for VPN Manager:
1 To connect to the System Status page, type https:// in the
browser address bar, and the IP address of the Edge trusted
interface.
The default URL is: https://192.168.111.1.
2 From the navigation bar, select Administration > VPN Manager
Access
The VPN Manager Access page appears.
3 Select the Enable VPN Manager Access check box.
4 Type and confirm a status and configuration passphrase to be
used to allow the DVCP Server to make read-only and read-
write connections to your Firebox X Edge.
You must give these passphrases to the WatchGuard DVCP Server
administrator. You do not use these passphrases for any other tasks.
5 If the DVCP Server Firebox uses a version of WatchGuard System
Manager older than WSM version 7.3, select the Enable
Interoperability with VPN Manager v7.0, v7.1, and v7.2 check
box. If the DVCP Server Firebox uses WatchGuard System
Manager 7.3 or later, do not select this check box.
6 Click the Submit button.
