VPN
Configuring a Site-to-Site VPN
STEP 4
Cisco ISA500 Series Integrated Security Appliances Administration Guide
In the Advanced Settings tab, enter the following information:
•
PFS Enable: Click On to enable Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) to improve
security, or click Off to disable it. If you enable PFS, a Diffie-Hellman
exchange is performed for every phase-2 negotiation. PFS is desired on the
keying channel of the VPN connection.
•
DPD Enable: Click On to enable Dead Peer Detection (DPD), or click Off to
disable it. DPD is a method of detecting a dead Internet Key Exchange (IKE)
peer. This method uses IPsec traffic patterns to minimize the number of
messages required to confirm the availability of a peer. DPD is used to
reclaim the lost resources in case a peer is found dead and it is also used to
perform IKE peer failover. If you enable DPD, enter the following information:
-
Delay Time: Enter the value of delay time in seconds between
consecutive DPD R-U-THERE messages. DPD R-U-THERE messages are
sent only when IPsec traffic is idle. The default value is 10 seconds.
-
Detection Timeout: Enter the value of detection timeout in seconds. If no
response and no traffic over the timeout, declare the peer dead. The
default value is 30 seconds.
-
DPD Action: Choose one of the following actions over the detection
timeout:
Hold: Traffic from your local network to the remote network can trigger
the security appliance to re-initiate the VPN connection over the
detection timeout. We recommend that you use Hold when the remote
peer uses a static IP address.
Clean: Terminate the VPN connection over the detection timeout. You
must manually re-initiate the VPN connection. We recommend that you
use Clean when the remote peer uses dynamic IP address.
Restart: Re-initiate the VPN connection for three times over the detection
timeout.
•
Windows Networking (NetBIOS) Broadcast: Click On to allow access
remote network resources by using its NetBIOS name, for example,
browsing Windows Neighborhood. NetBIOS broadcasting can resolve a
NetBIOS name to a network address. This option allows NetBIOS
broadcasts to travel over the VPN tunnel.
•
Access Control: When the local network is set as Any, you can control
incoming traffic from the remote VPN network to the zones. Click Permit to
permit access, or click Deny to deny access. By default, incoming traffic
from the remote network to all zones is permitted.
