Accessing the Autokey IKE window: Click IPSec Autokey under the VPN menu to enter the Autokey IKE window. The Autokey IKE table displays current configured VPNs. The fields in the Autokey IKE window are: ! Name: The VPN name to identify the VPN tunnel definition. The name must be different for the two sites creating the tunnel. ! Gateway IP: The external interface IP address of the remote Firewall. ! Destination Subnet: Destination network subnet. ! PSK/RSA: The IKE VPN must be defined with a Preshared Key. The Key may be up to 128 bytes long. ! Status: Connect/Disconnect or Connecting/Disconnecting. ! Configure: Connect, Disconnect, Modify and Delete. 81
