Abstract
A method for performing policy-based configuration of Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) for a Virtual Private Network (VPN) is provided. According to one embodiment, a browser-based interface of a network device displays a policy page through which multiple settings may be configured for a VPN connection. The settings include a type of IPSec tunnel to be established between the network device and a peer. One or more parameter values corresponding to one or more of the settings are received and responsive thereto a policy file is created or modified corresponding to the VPN connection. The policy file has contained therein multiple parameter values corresponding to the settings. Establishment of the VPN connection between the network device and the peer is requested based on the parameter values contained within the policy file by sending a notification request, including the policy file, from the network device to the peer.
