7. VPN Configuration
Overview
Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a connection between two end points. It allows private data
to be sent securely over a public network, such as Internet. VPN establishes a private
network that can send data securely between two networks by creating a “tunnel”. A VPN
tunnel connects the two PCs or networks
Note: The SP883B Router uses industry standard VPN protocol. However, due to variations
in how manufactures interpret these standards, many VPN products are not interoperable.
Although the SP883B Router can interoperate with many other VPN products, it is not
possible for SP883B Router to provide specific technical support for every other product.
Planning the VPN:
When planning your VPN, you must make sure of the following items first.
1.
If the remote end was a network, the two-endpoint network must have different LAN IP
address ranges. If the remote endpoint is a single PC running a VPN client, its
destination address must be a single IP address, with subnet mask of
255.255.255.255
2.
If you will be using the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) setup, or Manual Key, in which you
must specify each phase of the connection.
3.
At least one side must have a fixed IP address. The other side with a dynamic IP
address must always be the initiator of the connection.
4.

The encryption level you are planning to use (DES or 3DES)?
