IPSec(VPN)
Virtual Private Network (VPN) enables a secure communication between the console server and
a remote network by utilizing a gateway and creating a secured connection between the
console server and the gateway. The IPSec protocol is used to construct the secure tunnel and
provides encryption and authentication services at the IP level of the protocol stack.
NOTE: IPSec(VPN) isnotsupported withIPv6.
When Network - IPSec(VPN) is selected, the IPSec(VPN) screen is displayed.

The remote gateway is referred to as the remote or right host and the console server is referred
to as the local or left host. If left and right are not directly connected, then you must also
specify a NextHop IP address.
The next hop for the remote or right host is the IP address of the router to which the remote
host or gateway running IPSec sends packets when delivering them to the left host. The next
hop for the left host is the IP address of the router to which the console server sends packets to
for delivery to the right host.
A Fully Qualified Domain Name should be indicated in the ID fields for both the Local (Left)
host and the Remote (Right) host where the IPSec negotiation takes place.
