that computer.
Once connected, you can open a browser on the remote PC and enter the LAN IP Address of the
FVS328, which is http://192.168.0.1 in this example. After a short wait, you should see the login
screen of the FVS328.
From the FVS328 to the Client PC
You can use the FVS328 Diagnostic utilities to test the VPN connection from the FVS328 to the
client PC. Run ping tests from the Diagnostics link of the FVS328 main menu.

Netgear ProSafe VPN Client Connection Monitor or Log Viewer. To launch these functions, click
on the Windows Start button, then select Programs, then Netgear ProSafe VPN Client, then either

3DES
3DES (Triple DES) achieves a high level of security by encrypting the data
three times using DES with three different, unrelated keys.

Authentication Header
CA
Certificate Authority. A trusted third-party organization or company that
issues digital certificates used to create digital signatures and public-private
key pairs. The role of the CA in this process is to guarantee that the individual
granted the unique certificate is, in fact, who he or she claims to be. Usually,
this means that the CA has an arrangement with a financial institution, such as
a credit card company, which provides it with information to confirm an
individual's claimed identity. CAs are a critical component in data security
and electronic
commerce because they guarantee that the two parties
exchanging information are really who they claim to be.
CRL
Certificate Revocation List. Each Certificate Authority (CA) maintains a
revoked certificates list.

DoS. A hacker attack designed to prevent your computer or network from
operating or communicating.
DES

encrypting these values using a 56 bit key.

Deffie Helman
Deffie Helman shared secret algorithm.Deffie Helman shared secret algorithm
is a method for securely exchanging a shared secret between two parties, in
real-time, over an untrusted network. A shared secret allows two parties, who
may not have ever communicated previously, to encrypt their
communications. As such, it is used by several protocols, including Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) and Internet Protocol Security (IPSec).
