Chapter 19 IPSec VPN The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 102 SECURITY > VPN > VPN Rules (IKE) > Edit Network Policy LABEL DESCRIPTION Active If the Active check box is selected, packets for the tunnel trigger the ZyWALL to build the tunnel. Clear the Active check box to turn the network policy off. The ZyWALL does not apply the policy. Packets for the tunnel do not trigger the tunnel. If you clear the Active check box while the tunnel is up (and click Apply), you turn off the network policy and the tunnel goes down. Name Type a name to identify this VPN network policy. You may use any character, including spaces, but the ZyWALL drops trailing spaces. Protocol Specify the number of an IP protocol type. Enter 1 for ICMP, 6 for TCP, 17 for UDP, and so on. 0 is the default and signifies any protocol. Nailed-Up Select this check box to turn on the nailed up feature for this SA. Turn on nailed up to have the ZyWALL automatically reinitiate the SA after the SA lifetime times out, even if there is no traffic. The ZyWALL also reinitiates the SA when it restarts. The ZyWALL also rebuilds the tunnel if it was disconnected due to the output or input idle timer. Allow NetBIOS Traffic Through IPSec Tunnel This field is not available when the ZyWALL is in bridge mode. NetBIOS (Network Basic Input/Output System) are TCP or UDP packets that enable a computer to connect to and communicate with a LAN. It may sometimes be necessary to allow NetBIOS packets to pass through VPN tunnels in order to allow local computers to find computers on the remote network and vice versa. Select this check box to send NetBIOS packets through the VPN connection. Check IPSec Tunnel Connectivity Select the check box and configure an IP address in the Ping this Address field to have the ZyWALL periodically test the VPN tunnel to the remote IPSec router. The ZyWALL pings the IP address every minute. The ZyWALL starts the IPSec connection idle timeout timer when it sends the ping packet. If there is no traffic from the remote IPSec router by the time the timeout period expires, the ZyWALL disconnects the VPN tunnel. Log Select this check box to set the ZyWALL to create logs when it cannot ping the remote device. Ping this Address If you select Check IPSec Tunnel Connectivity, enter the IP address of a computer at the remote IPSec network. The computer's IP address must be in this IP policy's remote range (see the Remote Network fields). Gateway Policy Information Gateway Policy Select the gateway policy with which to use the VPN policy or store it in the recycle bin (without an association to any gateway policy). Virtual Address Mapping Rule Virtual address mapping over VPN is available with the routing mode. Active Enable this feature to have the ZyWALL use virtual (translated) IP addresses for the local network for the VPN connection. You do not configure the Local Network fields when you enable virtual address mapping. Virtual address mapping allows local and remote networks to have overlapping IP addresses. Virtual address mapping (NAT over IPSec) translates the source IP addresses of computers on your local network to other (virtual) IP addresses before sending the packets to the remote IPSec router. This translation hides the source IP addresses of computers in the local network. ZyWALL 5/35/70 Series User's Guide 369
