Appendix: Preferences

Most preferences in VPN Tracker are connection-
specific and are touched in the section regarding
custom connections. There’s only a small set of
truly global options.

Updates

VPN Tracker is updated regularly, and you can instruct the
application to check for updates (and notify you).

To make VPN Tracker check for updates automatically:
‣ Check the appropriate box in the preferences

Growl

Growl is a system-wide notification tool. VPN Tracker can
display Growl notifications for starting or stopping
connections, for errors or even when a connection status
changes

To enable Growl:
‣ Check the appropriate box
‣ Activate the desired notifications

Advanced (Ports)

In certain network environments (e.g. when using the Back to
my Mac feature in Mac OS X 10.5), dynamic port handling is
required.

To enable dynamic ports for IKE or NAT-T:
‣ Uncheck the appropriate box
