6.7 Configuring VPN Tunnels
Create a VPN tunnel to ensure data privacy between two end points, even while using an insecure
communication medium like the Internet. VPNs use a secure tunnel between two end points as if they
are directly connected over a secure connection.
The access point allows up to 25 VPN tunnels to either a VPN endpoint or to another access point.
VPN tunnels allow all traffic on a local subnet to route securely through an IPSec tunnel to a private
network. A VPN port is a virtual port which handles tunneled traffic.
When connecting to another site using a VPN, the traffic is encrypted so if anyone intercepts the
traffic, they cannot see what it is unless they can break the encryption. The traffic is encrypted from
your computer through the network to the VPN. At that point the traffic is decrypted.
Use the
VPN
screen to add and remove VPN tunnels.
To configure an existing VPN tunnel, select it
from the list in the
VPN Tunnels
field. The selected tunnel’s configuration displays in a
VPN Tunnel
Config
field.
To configure a VPN tunnel on the access point:
1.
Select
Network Configuration
->
WAN
->
VPN
from the access point menu tree.
