device. To set up multiple VPN tunnels, you will need to 
have at least one WatchGuard Firebox configured with the 
WatchGuard VPN Manager.
• Each device must be able to send messages to the other. If 
either device has a dynamically assigned Internet (IP) 
address (see “Network addressing” on page 37 for an 
explanation of dynamic IP addresses), it will not be able to 
find its remote counterpart.
• Both devices must be set to use the same encryption method. 
The two choices are DES or 3DES. When connecting two 
Windows NT networks, the two networks must be in the 
same Microsoft Windows domain or be trusted domains. 
This is a Microsoft Networking design implementation and 
is not a limitation of the SOHO device.
Frequently asked questions
Why do I need a static external address? 
To create a VPN connection, one SOHO must be able to find its 
partner device. If the addresses were allowed to change, the SOHO 
could not find its remote computer.
How do I get a static external IP address?
Contact your ISP. Some systems, like many cable modem systems, 
use dynamically assigned addresses to simplify basic installations. 
Some providers may also use this feature to discourage users from 
creating Web servers. These providers usually offer a static IP 
address option.
