Link LEDs signal whether or not the router recognizes a valid connection to
a LAN.
■ No light—The Ethernet interface is down.

Rear Panel
The rear panel of the ProCurve Secure Router includes a slot for an optional
IPSec VPN module and a slot for a compact flash card. The ProCurve Secure
Router 7203dl also includes an additional feature: an outlet for a Redundant
Power Source.
Optional IPSec VPN Module
If your company wants to establish virtual private networks (VPNs) over the
Internet, you can install the IPSec VPN module in the slot provided on the
ProCurve Secure Router’s rear panel. (See Figure 1-20.) The router can then
establish a VPN with another router or with a VPN client that is installed on a
user’s workstation. Remote sites and individual users can then connect to your
company’s network through private Internet connections.
