2 SpeedTouch™ IPSec terminology
Introduction
In order to understand the IPSec configuration of the SpeedTouch™, a number of
concepts and definitions are introduced in this section. The Graphical User Interface
(GUI) and the Command Line Interface (CLI) provide two alternative methods to
configure the IPSec functions. The GUI contains some scenario-driven pages, which
means that the configuration pages are grouped according to the intended network
application. The advanced GUI pages and the CLI are component-driven, which
means that network components are configured independently of each other. It is
up to the user to combine the configuration of various components in order to build
an operational node in the intended network environment.

The majority of IPSec configurations can be built with the Graphical User Interface.
Only in particular situations, it may be required to access some advanced functions
via the Command Line Interface. The terminology used in the CLI and GUI is similar.
The clarification of the concepts and terms refers to the command structure of the
CLI. The IPSec command group comprises a number of underlying command
groups, each containing a number of commands in a hierarchical way.
