Protector UTM Firewall – VPN Capability

- VPN Server The VPN function allows to establish a VPN tunnel between 2 Protector units. Protectors must be on public IP’s and must have a subnet each. One of the 2 Protectors will be the Head, the other one the Branch. A Head endpoint will actively try to establish a connection with the Branch counterpart, a Branch endpoint will enable the service and will wait for incoming connections from the Head counterpart.

To create a connection, click on the VPN menu or on the Setup link in the Control Panel. When you then click on Add a new VPN Tunnel, next window will show:

When all parameters have been set up correctly, you can enable the VPN Module on both Protectors.

If you enable the Head endpoint only, it will fail to establish a connection. If you enable the Branch endpoint only, it will enter a wait state until the Head endpoint is started.

When the Tunnel has been established, it will show like this:
