The table Further remote gateways is used to specify redundant VPN routes by entering further destinations (as an IP address, DNS name or group name for the referenced connection) in addition to the IP address or DNS name specified as the remote gateway in the VPN connection list. All gateways have to be configured identically with respect to the referenced connection.
- Name of connection
- From the list of defined VPN connections, select here the name of the VPN connection that the additional gateways defined here apply to.
- Begin with gateway
- Here you select the first gateway that is to be used for establishing the VPN connection. Possible values:
- Last used
- Selects the gateway that was most recently used to connect successfully.
- First
- Start with the first entry in the list.
- Random
- Selects a random entry from the list.
- Default priority
- This is the default priority for all gateways specified here. The highest priority is 0, the lowest 65535. All gateways are grouped together, with groups of equal priority placed next to each other on one level. The primary gateway is automatically placed in its own group with a priority of 0. If the primary gateway references a gateway group, this group is added to the level of priority 0, regardless of its configured priority. If alternative gateways specified here do not reference a gateway group, these will also be added to the group of primary gateways.
- Gateway 2-33
-
You can make three possible entries for each of the up to 32 alternative gateways:
- The name of a gateway group
- The DNS name of a gateway
- The IP address of a gateway
- Routing tag
- Enter the respective routing tag which is used to set the route to the associated remote gateway.
Note: If you do not specify a routing tag here (i.e. routing tag is 0), then the routing tag configured for this remote station in the VPN connection list is used for the associated gateway.
