| Hi All Happy new year to everybody. I hope you all enjoyed your Christmas. I am currently trying to set up a vpn using the above modem. In the manual I get asked this: In IPSec General Setup, there are two major parts of configuration. There are two phases of IPSec. Phase 1: negotiation of IKE parameters including encryption, hash, Diffie-Hellman parameter values, and lifetime to protect the following IKE exchange, authentication of both peers using either a Pre-Shared Key or Digital Signature (x.509). The peer that starts the negotiation proposes all its policies to the remote peer and then remote peer tries to find a highest-priority match with its policies. Eventually to set up a secure tunnel for IKE Phase 2. Phase 2: negotiation IPSec security methods including Authentication Header (AH) or Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) for the following IKE exchange and mutual examination of the secure tunnel establishment. Do I actually need to do this please? I am trying to think of the end user and what I will need to do to set-up their computers etc. They are all windows users. Thanks Rich |
