Peer Configuration

1. Select the Peer Configuration tab to assign additional network address and IKE settings to the intended VPN tunnel peer destination.

2. Select either IKEv1 or IKEv2 to enforce VPN key exchanges using either IKEv1 or IKEv2.
3. Refer to the following to determine whether a new VPN peer configuration requires creation, an existing configuration requires modification, or a configuration requires removal.

   Name	Lists the 32-character maximum name assigned to each listed peer configuration at the time of its creation.
   Hostname/IP	The IP address (or host address FQDN) of the IPSec VPN peer targeted for secure tunnel connection and data transfer.
   Authentication Type	Whether the peer configuration has been defined to use PSK (pre-shared key) or RSA (Rivest, Shamir, and Adleman). RSA is an algorithm for public key cryptography. It is the first algorithm known to be suitable for both signing and encryption. If you are using IKEv2, this screen displays both local and remote authentication, because both ends of the VPN connection require authentication.
   Local id	The local identifier used within this peer configuration for an IKE exchange with the target VPN IPSec peer.
   Remote id	The means by which the target remote peer is to be identified (for example, string or FQDN) within the VPN tunnel.
   IKE Policy Name	The IKEv1 or IKE v2 policy used with each listed peer configuration.
