Overview of implementation
24 Avaya VPNmanager Configuration Guide Release 3.7
An IP Group contains the IP addresses that belong to a specific LAN. Any device connected to 
the LAN can use these addresses. A VPN can have many IP Groups so addresses can be 
consolidated to meet the needs of an organization.
The security gateway is configured to provide VPN gateway functionally and firewall coverage.
VPNmanager security management includes creating domain-level firewall rules and 
device-level firewall rules. VPNmanager provides multiple firewall templates that can be used 
as a general rule set or as a starting point for creating a customized firewall template. You can 
apply these templates at the domain level for all security gateways, for a specific security 
gateway (device-level), or for a defined device group. 
Preparing to configure your network
Before you use VPNmanager to build your VPN and establish your VPN security policies, you 
need to know how the VPN should be implemented. This section gives a overview of what 
information you should know before you begin. 
The following are functions or tasks that need to be addressed:
How the security gateway will be configured for your network
Which remote users will be configured on a security gateway
What IP addresses to configure and group
What type of security policies you want to implement
What VPN services to use
What advanced features, such as VoIP, Failover, or SNMP will be implemented
Security gateway 
The security gateway is preconfigured with default settings for the media interface zones and 
Network Address Translation (NAT). You may need to change default configuration for your 
specific network environment.
Up to six media interfaces can be configured with different zone interfaces. The number of 
zones that can be configured depends on the security gateway model (
). Ethernet0 and 
Ethernet1 are present in all models and are assigned to the public and the private zones. The 
media interfaces that remain are unused and can be configured as required. 
Public zone. Public zone provides connection to the Internet, usually by way of a wide 
area network (WAN).
Private zone. Private zone is used to provide connection to your private local area 
network (LAN) or to your corporate LAN.
