Organization of the VPN Concentrator Manager
The VPN Concentrator Manager consists of three major sections and many subsections:
• Configuration : setting all the parameters for the VPN Concentrator that govern its use and functionality
as a VPN device:
– Interfaces : Ethernet, WAN, and power supply interface parameters.
– System : parameters for system-wide functions such as server access, address management,
– User Management : attributes for groups and users that determine their access to and use of the VPN.
– Policy Management : policies that control access times and data traffic through the VPN via filters,
• Administration : managing higher level functions that keep the VPN Concentrator operational and
secure, such as who is allowed to configure the system, what software runs on it, and managing its
digital certificates.
• Monitoring : viewing routing tables, event logs, system LEDs and status, data on user sessions, and
statistics for protocols and system functions.
This manual covers all these topics. For Quick Configuration, see the VPN 3000 Concentrator Series
