3 Configure other settings as required.
4 Select OK.
To configure a route-based VPN Internet browsing configuration
1 Go to Firewall > Policy.
Encryption Key Enter an encryption key appropriate to the encryption algorithm:
• for DES, type a 16-character hexadecimal number (0-9, a-f).
• for 3DES, type a 48-character hexadecimal number (0-9, a-f) separated
into three segments of 16 characters.
• for AES128, type a 32-character hexadecimal number (0-9, a-f) separated
into two segments of 16 characters.
• for AES192, type a 48-character hexadecimal number (0-9, a-f) separated
into three segments of 16 characters.
• for AES256, type a 64-character hexadecimal number (0-9, a-f) separated
into four segments of 16 characters.
Authentication
Algorithm
Select one of the following message digests:
MD5 — Message Digest 5 algorithm, which produces a 128-bit message
digest.
SHA1 — Secure Hash Algorithm 1, which produces a 160-bit message digest.
SHA256 — Secure Hash Algorithm 2, which produces a 256-bit message
digest.
Note: The Algorithms for encryption and authentication cannot both be NULL.
Authentication
Key
Enter an authentication key appropriate to the authentication algorithm:
• for MD5, type a 32-character hexadecimal number separated into two
segments of 16 characters.
• for SHA1, type a 40-character hexadecimal number separated into two
segments of 16 characters and a third segment of 8 characters.
• for SHA256, type a 64-character hexadecimal number separated into four
segments of 16 characters.
Digits can be 0 to 9, and a to f.
