GRE TUNNEL WITH DDNS CLIENT TEST SCENARIO USING
O
MNIACCESS 5740 USG
Consider a scenario with two branches connected via GRE VPN tunnel with
OmniAccess 5740 USG acting as WAN termination device in respective branch
office.
For the VPN service in the below given deployment, end point identification is one
of the basic needs. Each branch office hook up to the internet with an IP address
dynamically allocated by the Internet Services Provider. As the IP addresses are
dynamically obtained, there is no guarantee that these IP addresses remain
constant over time.
To resolve this, configure DDNS client on OmniAccess 5740 USG. DDNS client
ensures that updates are sent to the DDNS server periodically or whenever there
is a change in IP address.
