Activating the VPN Tunnel by Pinging the Remote Endpoint
Note: This section uses 192.168.3.1 for an example remote endpoint LAN IP address.
To activate the VPN tunnel by pinging the remote endpoint (for example, 192.168.3.1), perform
the following steps depending on whether your configuration is client-to-gateway or gateway-to-
gateway:
• Client-to-gateway configuration. To check the VPN connection, you can initiate a request
from the remote PC to the DG834G v4's network by using the Connect option in the
NETGEAR ProSafe menu bar. The NETGEAR ProSafe client reports the results of the
attempt to connect. Since the remote PC has a dynamically assigned WAN IP address, it must
initiate the request.
To perform a ping test using our example, start from the remote PC:
a. Establish an Internet connection from the PC.
b. On the Windows taskbar, click the Start button, and then click Run.
