How To |
Today’s network managers often need to incorporate other vendors’ equipment into their
networks, as companies change and grow. To support this challenge, Allied Telesis routers are
designed to inter-operate with a wide range of equipment.
This How To Note details one of the inter-operation solutions from Allied Telesis: creating
virtual private networks between Allied Telesis and NetScreen routers. It shows you how to
configure a VPN between a local Allied Telesis router and a remote NetScreen router, step-
by-step. On the Allied Telesis router, it uses the Site-To-Site VPN wizard for the VPN
configuration.
The wizard runs on selected AR400 Allied Telesis routers from the router’s web-based GUI
(graphical user interface). It asks you to enter a few details and from those it configures the
following settings:
z encryption to protect traffic over the VPN
z ISAKMP with a preshared key to manage the VPN
z the firewall, to protect the LANs and to allow traffic to use the VPN
z Network Address Translation (NAT), so that you can access the Internet from the private
LAN through a single public IP address. This Internet access does not interfere with the
VPN solution.
You can use the command line to set up an equivalent configuration on AR700 and other
AR400 Series routers. See "The router commands" on page 28 for a complete list of the
commands the configuration uses.
