Creating a VPN Connection: Between FVX538 and FVS124G
This section describes how to configure a VPN connection between a NETGEAR FVX538 VPN
Firewall and a NETGEAR FVS124G VPN Firewall.
Using each firewall's VPN Wizard, we will create a set of policies (IKE and VPN) that will allow
the two firewalls to connect from locations with fixed IP addresses. Either firewall can initiate the
connection.
This procedure was developed and tested using:
•
Netgear FVX538 VPN Firewall with version 1.6.11 firmware
–
WAN1 IP address is 10.1.0.118
–
•
Netgear FVS124g VPN Firewall with version 1.0 firmware
–
WAN IP address is 10.1.1.150
–
LAN IP address subnet is 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0
Configuring the FVX538
1.
Select the VPN Wizard
2.
Give the client connection a name, such as
to_fvs
.
3.
Enter a value for the pre-shared key.
4.
Select 'a remote VPN gateway'.
