Remote ID (Filter) Type and Remote ID Filter:
The Remote ID Filter identifies the VPN client during the Phase 1 negotiation. 
This identity is used as a filter for VPN clients when they join the VPN. Its value 
must match the settings in the VPN client in order to successfully set up the 
IKE Security Association. The identity types supported in the SpeedTouch™ 
are listed in the table below.
A SpeedTouch™ VPN client identifies itself with a userfqdn in the form of a 
unique e-mail address, when generic is selected for the Server Vendor. In 
order to make the configuration of the VPN server independent of the number 
of VPN clients, wildcards can be used, as shown in the table above. For 
example, *.corporate.net will match with any e-mail address in the domain 
corporate.net.
