Term of Setting (Figure 20-2)
VPN IP Range: The IP subnet of Web/SSL VPN connection. When user connects
to RS-2500 via Web/SSL VPN, he will obtain the IP address of this IP range. By
default, the VPN IP Range is set to the different IP subnet with RS-2500 LAN IP,
but remote user can still access RS-2500 LAN resource.
DES: DES, an acronym for Data Encryption Standard, is a cipher that was
selected by NIST (National Institute of Standard and Technology), using a 56-bit
key for encryption.
3DES: 3DES, an acronym for Triple Data Encryption Standard, providing
significantly enhanced security by executing the core DES algorithm three times in
a row, is more difficult to break than DES, using a 168-bit key size.
AES: AES, an acronym for Advanced Encryption Standard, is more difficult to
break than DES. The DES encryption key is 56 bits long; on the contrary, AES
keys can be 128, 192 or 256 bits long.
Server Port: The port number is changeable. With Server port, the Web/SSL VPN
Server can transfer data to client side. If RS-2500 is deployed behind a router, the
router must define to allow HTTPS and Server Port passing through to RS-2500,
otherwise the Web/SSL VPN may not work well.
Enable DNS and WINS server addresses to clients: If user enables this
function, the DNS server IP and WINS Server IP will be assigned to remote client
PC.
Enable NAT mode: If user enables this function, the outside packets will be added
the LAN port IP address of RS-2500 in packet’s header. It is designed for a
specific server that had such request. Mostly user does not need to enable it.
Enable hardware authentication: This function can make the login process more
easily if user often use Web/SSL VPN function. By default, system will assign
client PC to the Dropped list when it is the first time the client PC connect to it.
Authentication User or Group: RS-2500 Web/SSL VPN can co-work with
Authentication function to authorize the access right of VPN client.
Enable hardware authentication only: If the client PC is moved to Accepted
list, then he can access RS-2500 LAN resource without passing
authentication.
Enable Authentication User or Group only: If the client PC passes the
authentication, then he can access RS-2500 LAN resource.
Hardware Authentication set to Accepted and enable Authentication
User or Group: The client PC can access RS-2500 LAN resource without
passing authentication.
