NOTE
When creating a tunnel, the remote subnet and remote subnet mask must be that of the target
device’s LAN settings. The remote gateway must be that of the target device’s WAN IP address.
If access point #1 has the following values:
•
WAN IP address: 20.1.1.2
•
LAN IP address: 10.1.1.1
•
Subnet Mask: 255.0.0.0
Then, the VPN values for access point #2 should be:
•
Remote subnet: 10.1.1.0 or 10.0.0.0
•
Remote subnet mask: 255.0.0.0
•
Remote gateway: 20.1.1.2
3. If a VPN tunnel has been added to the list of available Mobility 7131 Access Point tunnels, use
the VPN Tunnel Config field to optionally modify the tunnel’s properties.
Remote Subnet
The
Remote Subnet
column lists the remote subnet for each tunnel. The remote subnet
is the subnet the remote network uses for connection.
Remote Gateway
The
Remote Gateway
column lists a remote gateway IP address for each tunnel. The
numeric remote gateway is the gateway IP address on the remote network the VPN tunnel
connects to. Ensure the address is the same as the WAN port address of the target
gateway AP or switch.
Key Exchange Type
The
Key Exchange Type
column lists the key exchange type for passing keys between
both ends of a VPN tunnel. If Manual Key Exchange is selected, this column displays
Manual. If Auto (IKE) Key Exchange is selected, the field displays
Automatic
.
Tunnel Name
Enter a name to define the VPN tunnel. The tunnel name is used to uniquely identify each
tunnel. Select a name best suited to that tunnel’s function so it can be selected again in
the future if required in a similar application.
Interface name
Use the drop-down menu to specify the LAN1, LAN2 or WAN connection used for routing
VPN traffic. Remember, only one LAN connection can be active on the access point
Ethernet port at a time. The LAN connection specified from the LAN screen to receive
priority for Ethernet port connectivity may be the better subnet to select for VPN traffic.
Local WAN IP
Enter the WAN’s numerical (non-DNS) IP address in order for the tunnel to pass traffic to a
remote network.
Remote Subnet
Specify the numerical (non-DNS) IP address for the Remote Subnet.
Remote Subnet Mask Enter the subnet mask for the tunnel’s remote network for the tunnel. The remote subnet
mask is the subnet setting for the remote network the tunnel connects to.
Remote Gateway
Enter a numerical (non-DNS) remote gateway IP address for the tunnel. The remote
gateway IP address is the gateway address on the remote network the VPN tunnel
connects to.
Default Gateway
Displays the WAN interface's default gateway IP address.
Manual Key Exchange Selecting
Manual Key Exchange
requires you to manually enter keys for AH and/or ESP
encryption and authentication. Click the
Manual Key Settings
button to configure the
settings.
Manual Key Settings
Select
Manual Key Exchange
and click the
Manual Key Settings
button to open a
screen where AH authentication and ESP encryption/authentication can be configured and
keys entered. For more information, see Configuring Manual Key Settings on page 6-221.
