Step 2: Configuring the NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Client on the

Remote PC

This procedure describes how to configure the NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Client. These

instructions assume that the PC running the client has a dynamically assigned IP address.

The PC must have the NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Client program installed that supports IPSec. Go

to the NETGEAR website (

http://www.netgear.com

) for information about how to purchase the

NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Client.

1.

Install the NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Client on the remote PC, and then reboot.

a.

Install the IPSec component. You might have the option to install either the VPN adapter

or the IPSec component or both. The VPN adapter is not necessary.

If you do not have a modem or dial-up adapter installed in your PC, you might see the

warning message stating “The NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Component requires at least one

dial-up adapter be installed.” You can disregard this message.

b.

Reboot the remote PC.

The ProSafe icon (

) is in the system tray.

c.

Double-click the ProSafe icon to open the Security Policy Editor.

2.

Add a new connection.

a.

Run the NETGEAR ProSafe Security Policy Editor program, and, using the

“VPN Tunnel

Configuration Worksheet” on page 6-6

, create a VPN connection.

Note:

Before installing the NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Client software, be sure to turn off

any virus protection or firewall software you might be running on your PC. You

might need to insert your Windows CD to complete the installation.

as the LAN Subnet Mask of the DG834G v5.

check box.

Figure 6-9

Note:

In this example, the connection name used on the client side of the VPN

tunnel is

toDG834,

and it does not have to match the RoadWarrior

connection name used on the gateway side of the VPN tunnel because

connection names are irrelevant to how the VPN tunnel functions.

Tip:

Choose connection names that make sense to the people using and

administering the VPN.
