Revision Date Description
A 07/02/03 Initial release
B 08/19/03 Added RF560VPN
C 03/19/04 Changed to document the RF760VPN/RF660VPN/RF600VPN only
D 11/17/04 & 01/25/05 Changes for software 3.20 and 3.21
The examples on the following pages illustrate:
1. RF760VPN / RF660VPN / RF600VPN connected to another RF760VPN / RF660VPN / RF600VPN
through a VPN tunnel configured for Manual Mode.
2. RF760VPN / RF660VPN / RF600VPN, behind a NAT box, doing IPSec Pass-Through in Manual Mode
to another RF760VPN / RF660VPN / RF600VPN.
The RouteFinder software is pre-installed on the RF760VPN, RF660VPN, and RF600VPN RouteFinders. The
RouteFinders use the same software, version 3.21. Initial configuration is required in order for you to run the
RouteFinder software and begin operation.
The browser-based interface eases VPN configuration and management. The VPN functionality is based on IPSec
and PPTP protocols and uses 168-bit Triple DES encryption to ensure that your information remains private.
IMPORTANT:
Caution: Use a safe Password! Your first name spelled backwards is not a sufficiently safe password; a password
such as xfT35$4 is better.

Example 1
This example provides a sample RouteFinder configuration and related address scheme for an application employing
LAN-to-LAN VPN communication. It shows how to configure an RF660VPN at Site A and an RF660VPN at Site B so
that Site A and Site B communicate through a secure connection over the Internet using a VPN tunnel in Manual
Mode. This example assumes both VPN gateways have fixed IP addresses.

For LAN-to-LAN connectivity, the RouteFinders utilize the IPSec protocol to provide up to 100 tunnels with strong
168-bit 3DES encryption using IKE and PSK key management.
In addition, they provide very high performance up to 50Mbps of 3DES encryption throughput.

Example 1 –Site A

Example 1 Site A Configuration
1. Connect a workstation to the RF660VPN’s LAN port via Ethernet for Site A. In this example, the RouteFinder will
be referenced as RF660VPN, but the RF760VPN and RF600VPN can be configured in the same way.
2. Set the workstation IP address to 192.168.2.100 subnet.
3. Turn on power to the RF660VPN RouteFinder and wait until you hear 5 beeps.
4. Bring up your Web browser on the workstation. At the Web browser’s address line, type the default Gateway
address of https://192.168.2.1 and press the Enter key. In some environments, one or more Security Alert
screen(s) display.
Note: Make sure your PC’s IP address is in the same network as the router’s IP Address. WINIPCFG and
IPCONFIG are tools for finding a computer’s default gateway and MAC address. In Windows 98/ME you can type
WINIPCFG. In Windows 2000/NT, you can type IPCONFIG.
At the initial Security Alert screen, click Yes and follow any additional on-screen prompts. (This step is
eliminated when you have generated a CA certificate at Administration >Site Certificate)
5. The Login screen is displayed. Type the default User name of admin (all lower-case), tab to the Password
entry and type the default Password of admin (all lower-case), and click on Login. The User and Password
entries are case-sensitive (both must be all lower-case). The password can be up to 12 characters. You will want
to change User and Password entries from the default (admin) to something else. (If Windows displays the
AutoComplete screen, for security reasons, you may want to click No to tell the Windows OS to not remember
the Password.)

6. If someone else is already logged in to the RouteFinder, or you were logged in recently, the message below is
displayed.
Click the Yes button. The Login screen displays. Repeat step 5.
7. The Web Management Home screen is displayed.

9. Click on Wizard Setup. Enter information for Site A of this example.
a) Enter the Administrator Email Address (can be anything). (Example: [email protected])
b) Enter the Host name for the RouteFinder (can be anything). (Example: RF660VPN.Site-A.com)
c) LAN IP Address and Subnet Mask are set at the defaults. This should be acceptable for Site A.
d) Enter the WAN IP Address. This is the PUBLIC STATIC IP address. (Example: 204.26.122.103)
e) Change the Gateway IP address; this is the IP address of the router that connects to the Internet. (Example:
204.26.122.1)
f) Place a checkmark in the Packet Filter Rule: LAN-ANY-ANY-ALLOW box. This enables the rule.
g) Specify any changes to the passwords that you feel are necessary.
h) Click Save to save the settings you just entered.
i) The following screen displays prompting you to save your changes. Click OK.
j) The following screen displays. Saving your settings will take several minutes. Since you kept the LAN IP
address the same, it is not necessary to change this system to a new IP address.

10. Click on Networks & Services > Network. The LAN IP network should already be defined. This is the private
LAN on eth0 at Site A (not shown in this example).
a) Define the IP network that is configured on the remote LAN port (the private LAN on eth0 at Site B) by
entering the following information. After this information is entered, it is added to the Network/Host list on
this screen.
For example: Name = RemoteLAN
IP address = 192.168.10.0
Subnet mask = 255.255.255.0
b) Define the IP address that is configured on the remote WAN port (the public WAN on eth1 at Site B) by
entering the following information. After this information is entered, it is added to the Network/Host list on
this screen.
For example: Name = RemoteWAN_IP
IP address = 204.26.122.3
Subnet mask = 255.255.255.255
After this information is entered, it displays at the bottom of the screen.
RemoteLAN 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0
RemoteWAN_IP 204.26.122.3 255.255.255.255
11. Click on Packet Filters > Packet Filters Rules.
The rule for LAN should already be present. Add the rule RemoteLAN – Any – Any – ACCEPT.
This allows the Remote LAN at Site B to access the RouteFinder and LAN at Site A.
After the rule is entered, it displays under User Defined Packet Filter Rules.
1 RemoteLAN Any Any ACCEPT
