IKE/IPSec Configuration
IKE/IPSec (Internet Key Exchange/Internet Protocol Security) provides authentication and encryption of IP 
traffic for the authenticity, integrity and privacy of your communications. IPSec sessions are established 
through Security Associations (SAs) that enable secure devices to negotiate a level of security attributes 
needed for a Virtual Private Network (VPN).
To configure IKE/IPSec:
1. Click IKE/IPSec Configuration from the left navigation pane of the Router Information window. This 
displays the IKE/IPSec Information page. 
2. Select one of the following from the left navigation pane:
Perform basic IKE/IPSec setup.
Perform advanced IKE/IPSec setup.
