For many of these parameters, you can simply specify that the user "inherit" parameters from a group;
and a user can be assigned either to a configured group or to the base group. Users who are not members
of a configured group are, by default, members of the base group.
On this screen, you configure four kinds of parameters:
• Identity Parameters : name, password, group, and IP address.
• General Parameters : access, performance, and allowed tunneling protocols.
• IPSec Parameters : IP Security tunneling protocol.
• PPTP/L2TP Parameters : PPTP and L2TP tunneling protocols.
Tip:
To streamline the configuration process, just fill in the Identity Parameters tab (assigning the user to a
configured group), and click Add . Then select the user and click Modify . The user inherits the group
parameters, and the Modify screen shows group parameters instead of base-group parameters.
Before configuring these parameters, you should configure the base-group parameters on the
