How to test the tunnel
There are several options for testing the tunnel. If these checks show that your tunnel is not
working, see the How To Note How To Troubleshoot A Virtual Private Network (VPN).
The simplest way to test the tunnel is to ping from one LAN to the other. For example, from
the PC attached to the Allied Telesis router, ping the PC attached to the NetScreen router.
If the Allied Telesis router has a dynamic IP address, note that you must initiate the tunnel
from the Allied Telesis end. This means pinging from a PC attached to the Allied Telesis
router, not from a PC attached to the NetScreen router.
On the Home page of the NetScreen router, you can look at the list of events while (or after)
attempting to ping from one LAN to the other. You should see entries for successful Phase
1
and Phase 2 negotiations. Click on the More link to display the events in full.
