VPN Tunnel Configuration
There are two tunnel configurations and three ways to configure them:
• Use the VPN Wizard to configure a VPN tunnel (recommended for most situations):
— See “How to Set Up a Client-to-Gateway VPN Configuration” on page 6-5.
— See “How to Set Up a Gateway-to-Gateway VPN Configuration” on page 6-22.
• See Chapter 7, “Advanced Virtual Private Networking” when the VPN Wizard and its VPNC
defaults (see Table 6-1 on page 6-4) are not appropriate for your special circumstances.
How to Set Up a Client-to-Gateway VPN Configuration
Setting up a VPN between a remote PC running the NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Client and a
network gateway (see figure below) involves the following two steps:
• “Step 1: Configuring the Client-to-Gateway VPN Tunnel on the FVG318” on page 6-6 uses
the VPN Wizard to configure the VPN tunnel between the remote PC and network gateway.
Note: NETGEAR publishes additional interoperability scenarios with various gateway
and client software products.
