46 Avaya VPNmanager Configuration Guide Release 3.7
View menu
From the View menu, you can view the configured objects, and you can refresh the screen.
Tools menu
The Tools menu consists of functions used for normal VPN maintenance. These functions
include the following.
● Update Devices. To update the selected security gateway configuration, click Update
Devices. You select the security gateway to update. This will reconfigure all security
gateway parameters for the selected gateway and can take several minutes to complete.
This function is the same as the Update Devices button on the far right side of the toolbar
on the VPNmanager main screen. See Update Devices
on page 47.
● Upgrade Devices Firmware. This function is used to download new firmware to selected
devices. See Upgrading a security gateway’s firmware on page 289
.
● Import VPN. A secure, inter-company extranet can be created by exporting a VPN
configuration to a file that is then imported by other VPNmanager installations. See the
Importing and exporting VPN configurations to a device
on page 284.
● Export VPN. Export VPN can be used to export the VPN configuration which in turn can
be imported into other VPNmanager installations.
● Export RADIUS. This function is used to export VPN information to an existing RADIUS
database. This is primarily for backwards compatibility, but also useful if you wish to
convert your existing VPN (using local security gateway-based user authentication) into a
dynamic VPN for future scalability. It is, however, expected that LDAP will be the preferred
method of building dynamic VPNs.
● Policies Manager The Policies Manager displays a list from which specific policy services
can be selected. Select a service and click GO to start the Policy Manager for the selected
service.
The types of policies that can be configured depend on the firmware version of the security
gateway. Only policies that can be configured are displayed.

lists the policies that could be configured.
