3-16 Configuring Sidewinder for Soft-PK Clients
Local Network/IP Specify the network names or IP addresses to use as
the destination for the client(s) in the VPN. Click the
New button to specify the IP Address / Hostname
and Number of bits in Netmask. The value specified
identifies the network portion of the IP address. For
example, if you specify 24 with an IP address of
10.10.10.0, all IP addresses that begin with 10.10.10 are
accepted.
Note: If you are using Client Address Pools, the local
(destination for clients) is configured using different
windows.
Enabled Select Ye s .
Burb Click the dropdown list to assign this VPN to a burb.
Sidewinder terminates each VPN in a burb so that
access rules may or may not be applied to the VPN.
If you selected Dynamic IP Restricted Client in the Mode field, you will
need to define one of the following mutually exclusive options.
Client Address
Pool
Determine if you want remote clients to be assigned
only the IP addresses contained within one of the
available client address pools. If so, use the dropdown
list to select the client address pool you want to use.
With this option, Sidewinder selects an IP address from
the available pool and assigns it to the client for use
during the VPN connection.
Note: For information on creating Client Address Pools,
see Chapter 11 in the Sidewinder Administration Guide.
Dynamic Virtual
Address Range
Define the range of addresses a client can use when
initiating a VPN connection. The addresses specified
here do not represent a real network but are virtual
addresses. With this option the client assigns their own
IP address, although the address must be within the
approved address range.
