A list of defined VPN Connection profiles and Link Failure Detection Time option will be shown.
Click the Add VPN Connection button to create a new VPN connection profile for making VPN
connection to a remote Peplink Balance via the available WAN connections. Each profile is for making
VPN connection with one remote Peplink Balance. Click a connection name on the leftmost column to
edit the profile.
VPN Settings
VPN Connection
Name
This field is for specifying a name to represent this VPN connection profile.
Active
When this box is checked, this VPN connection profile will be enabled. Otherwise, it will be
disabled.
Encryption
By default, VPN traffic is encrypted with 256-bit AES standard. If the option Off is selected
on both sides of a VPN connection, no encryption will be applied.
Peer Serial
Number
Peplink Balance only establishes VPN connection with a remote peer that has a serial
number specified here. If the remote peer is in high availability setup, you can check the
box Remote client is set up in high availability mode and enter the second unit's serial
number into the second text box.
Peer IP Addresses
/ Host Names
(Optional)
Enter the remote peer’s WAN IP address(es) or host name(s) here. Dynamic-DNS host
names are accepted.
This field is optional. With this field filled, the Peplink Balance will initiate connection to
each of the remote IP addresses until success. If the field is empty, the Peplink Balance
will wait for connection from the remote peer. Therefore, at least one side of the two VPN
peers has to have this field filled. Otherwise, VPN connection cannot be established.
Enter one IP address or host name per line.
Route Internet
Traffic to This Peer
When this option is enabled, all Internet traffic will be routed to this VPN connection. i.e.
This VPN connection will act as the "default route". DNS servers must be entered, and
DNS requests will be routed to the remote peer. The remote peer will then route the
Internet traffic to its first available WAN connection.
This option can be enabled on one VPN connection profile only.
