16.2.1. Procedure – Using VPN connections

  1. Create the certificates required for authentication using the PNS PKI. See Procedure 11.3.8.2, Creating certificates for details.

  2. Configure the VPN tunnel using the VPN MC component. See Section 16.3, Configuring IPSec connections and Section 16.4, Configuring SSL (OpenVPN) connections for details.

    Tip

    To create Peer to Peer or Network to Network connections, use IPSec.

    To create Roadwarrior servers, use SSL.

  3. Create services that can be accessed from the VPN tunnel using the PNS MC component.

  4. Configure the remote endpoints (for example, roadwarrior clients) that will access the VPN tunnel. This process may involve installing VPN client software and certificates, and so on.
