P-2602H(W)(L)-DxA Series User's Guide Regardless of the ID type and content configuration, the ZyXEL Device does not allow you to save multiple active rules with overlapping local and remote IP addresses. With main mode (seeSection 17.12.1 on page 235), the ID type and content are encrypted to provide identity protection. In this case the ZyXEL Device can only distinguish between up to 12 different incoming SAs that connect from remote IPSec routers that have dynamic WAN IP addresses. The ZyXEL Device can distinguish up to 12 incoming SAs because you can select between three encryption algorithms (DES, 3DES and AES), two authentication algorithms (MD5 and SHA1) and two key groups (DH1 and DH2) when you configure a VPN rule (seeSection 17.13 on page 236). The ID type and content act as an extra level of identification for incoming SAs. The type of ID can be a domain name, an IP address or an e-mail address. The content is the IP address, domain name, or e-mail address. Table 83 Local ID Type and Content Fields LOCAL ID TYPE= CONTENT= IP DNS E-mail Type the IP address of your computer or leave the field blank to have the ZyXEL Device automatically use its own IP address. Type a domain name (up to 31 characters) by which to identify this ZyXEL Device. Type an e-mail address (up to 31 characters) by which to identify this ZyXEL Device. The domain name or e-mail address that you use in the Content field is used for identification purposes only and does not need to be a real domain name or e-mail address. Table 84 Peer ID Type and Content Fields PEER ID TYPE= CONTENT= IP DNS E-mail Type the IP address of the computer with which you will make the VPN connection or leave the field blank to have the ZyXEL Device automatically use the address in the Secure Gateway field. Type a domain name (up to 31 characters) by which to identify the remote IPSec router. Type an e-mail address (up to 31 characters) by which to identify the remote IPSec router. The domain name or e-mail address that you use in the Content field is used for identification purposes only and does not need to be a real domain name or e-mail address. The domain name also does not have to match the remote router's IP address or what you configure in the Secure Gateway Addr field below. 228 Chapter 17 VPN Screens

Chapter 17 VPN Screens
Regardless of the ID type and content configuration, the ZyXEL Device does not allow you to
save multiple active rules with overlapping local and remote IP addresses.
With main mode (see
Section 17.12.1 on page 235
), the ID type and content are encrypted to
provide identity protection. In this case the ZyXEL Device can only distinguish between up to
12 different incoming SAs that connect from remote IPSec routers that have dynamic WAN IP
addresses. The ZyXEL Device can distinguish up to 12 incoming SAs because you can select
between three encryption algorithms (DES, 3DES and AES), two authentication algorithms
(MD5 and SHA1) and two key groups (DH1 and DH2) when you configure a VPN rule
(see
Section 17.13 on page 236
). The ID type and content act as an extra level of identification
for incoming SAs.
The type of ID can be a domain name, an IP address or an e-mail address. The content is the IP
address, domain name, or e-mail address.
Table 83

Type a domain name (up to 31 characters) by which to identify this ZyXEL Device.
E-mail
Type an e-mail address (up to 31 characters) by which to identify this ZyXEL
Device.
The domain name or e-mail address that you use in the

field is used for
identification purposes only and does not need to be a real domain name or e-mail
address.
