Figure 5-19 VPN Tunnel Policies When you use the VPN Wizard to set up a VPN tunnel, both a VPN Policy and an IKE Policy are established and populated in both Policy Tables. The name you selected as the VPN Tunnel connection name during Wizard setup identifies both the VPN Policy and IKE Policy. You can edit existing policies, or add new VPN and IKE policies directly in the Policy Tables. IKE Policy The IKE (Internet Key Exchange) protocol performs negotiations between the two VPN Gateways, and provides automatic management of the Keys used in IPSec. It is important to remember that: • "Auto" generated VPN policies must use the IKE negotiation protocol. • "Manual" generated VPN policies cannot use the IKE negotiation protocol. Managing IKE Policies IKE Policies are activated when: 1. The VPN Policy Selector determines that some traffic matches an existing VPN Policy. If the VPN policy is of type "Auto", then the Auto Policy Parameters defined in the VPN Policy are accessed which specify which IKE Policy to use. Virtual Private Networking v1.0, March 2009 5-15
