In the LAN-to-LAN profile, check the "Change default route to this VPN tunnel" box to enable this function. Once this tunnel is up, all traffic will pass through this tunnel to reach the remote network. When the tunnel is down, the default route will be back to the orignal. 2. This feature can only be enable on the dial-out side and apply to every type of VPN. So once you set it up, this profile can only be used for dial-out setting. Notes for IPSec tunnel keep alive function Since the IPSec tunnel does not have any in-band checking for loss of connectivity, there is a difficulty for tunnel maintenance. This note describes a mechanism for IPSec tunnel maintenance. By performing regular ICMP pings with a host in the remote LAN to detect the tunnel aliveness. The following steps will tell you how to enable this feature on this firmware 1. In the LAN-to-LAN profile, check the "Enable PING to keep alive" box and set an IP address of the node in the remote network(It can be the LAN IP of the remote Vigor device). You must be aware that this feature can only be enable on the dial-out side and also apply to IPSec tunnel only. So once you set it up, this profile can only be used for dial-out setting. 2. On the dial-in side, there is no any specific setting for this. 3. Once the dial-out side detects the tunnel is not available, it will clean the tunnel up and be ready for next connection. But it will not automatically reestablish this tunnel again, unless a. The "Always On" box is checked. b. Any traffic to the remote network to trigger the tunnel connection c. Manually dial out from the Web Configurator 4. The duration for the detection of loss tunnel may be up to 40 seconds. The new telnet commands for VPN(IKE) >vpn l2lset - Display the LAN-to-LAN Profiles >vpn l2lset ? - Show available sub telnet commands and usages >vpn l2lset - Show the setting of this LAN-to-LAN profile >vpn l2lset phase1 - Set key lifetime of IKE phase 1 for this LAN-to-LAN profile(Dial-out portion) >vpn l2lset phase2 - Set key lifetime of IKE phase 2 for this LAN-to-LAN profile(Dial-out portion) >vpn l2lset pfs - Force-on "perfect forward secret" or disable force-on "perfect forward secret". The default value is off. Hints for upgrading router's Firmware: Note: Normally the router has been installed the same version of the firmware in the CD before the shipping.
