Configure a Secure Connection to a Microsoft Windows Client

1. Log in to the 1756-EN2TSC module and choose Administrative Settings

> Secure Tunnel Configuration> IPsec Configuration.

2. On the right side of the screen, check Enable to enable IPsec connections.
3. In the Add a Security Association (SA) area, do the following.

a. Enter the Identifier as a text description of the connection.
b. Choose the Windows Client profile.
c. Enter the Remote IP address.

The Windows client does not use this field but you must enter a value
to complete the configuration. Enter the physical IP address of the
client (10.10.10.2 in the above examples) to help identify the secure
tunnel and the client. This address is for display purposes only and does
not affect configuration.

d. Enter the pre-shared key and confirm the pre-shared key.

A pre-shared key is similar to a password. Enter a phrase or set of
characters. For example, you could enter ‘rockwell’ as a pre-shared key.
Remember the pre-shared key. You enter the same value when you
configure the Windows connection (see page

39

).
