IKE/IPSec is an optional feature for your router. IKE/IPsec (Internet Key

Exchange/Internet Protocol Security) configuration screens enable optional

authentication and encryption of IP traffic for the authenticity, integrity and

privacy of your communications. IPsec sessions are established through Security

Associations (SAs) that enable secure devices to negotiate a level of security

attributes needed for a Virtual Private Network (VPN).

The home screen for IKE/IPSec configuration displays current IKE and IPSec

definitions. These definitions must be established by using the Easy IKE/IPSec

Setup and Advanced IKE/IPSec Setup screens.

To begin the configuration of IKE/IPsec, click the Easy IKE/IPSec Setup link.
