• Site-to-site - Choose this if the remote IPSec device has a static IP address or a domain name. 

This ISG50 can initiate the VPN tunnel. 

• Site-to-site with Dynamic Peer - Choose this if the remote IPSec device has a dynamic IP 

address. Only the remote IPSec device can initiate the VPN tunnel. 

• Remote Access (Server Role) - Choose this to allow incoming connections from IPSec VPN clients, 

including smartphone applications. The clients have dynamic IP addresses and are also known as 
dial-in users. Only the clients can initiate the VPN tunnel. 

• Remote Access (Client Role) - Choose this to connect to an IPSec server. This ISG50 is the client 

(dial-in user) and can initiate the VPN tunnel.
