Content

When you select IP in the Local ID Type field, type the IP address of your 

computer in the local Content field. The ZyXEL Device automatically uses the IP 

address in the My IP Address field (refer to the My IP Address field description) 

if you configure the local Content field to 0.0.0.0 or leave it blank. 
It is recommended that you type an IP address other than 0.0.0.0 in the local 

Content field or use the DNS or E-mail ID type in the following situations.
When there is a NAT router between the two IPSec routers. 
When you want the remote IPSec router to be able to distinguish between VPN 

connection requests that come in from IPSec routers with dynamic WAN IP 

addresses. 
When you select DNS or E-mail in the Local ID Type field, type a domain name 

or e-mail address by which to identify this ZyXEL Device in the local Content 

field. Use up to 31 ASCII characters including spaces, although trailing spaces 

are truncated. The domain name or e-mail address is for identification purposes 

only and can be any string.

My IP Address

Enter the WAN IP address of your ZyXEL Device. The VPN tunnel has to be 

rebuilt if this IP address changes.
The following applies if this field is configured as 0.0.0.0:
The ZyXEL Device uses the current ZyXEL Device WAN IP address (static or 

dynamic) to set up the VPN tunnel. 
If the WAN connection goes down, the ZyXEL Device uses the dial backup IP 

address for the VPN tunnel when using dial backup or the LAN IP address when 

using traffic redirect. See 

 for details on dial backup and 

traffic redirect.
