Sample Procedure - Adding a Site with IPsec IKEv1

Example of Creating a New IPsec IKEv1Site

This article is a sample procedure that explains how to create a new site with an IPsec IKEv1 (Cato-Initiated) connection. After you configure the site settings in the Add Site window, go to the IPsec section and configure the settings for the VPN tunnels. In this example, the default IKEv1 phase 1 and phase 2 settings are used for the site.

This sample deployment has a secondary connection to a different PoP.
