Activating the VPN Tunnel by Pinging the Remote Endpoint
Note: This section uses 192.168.3.1 for a sample 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 N300 Wireless Dual Band ADSL2+ Modem Router
DGND3300v2'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 select Run.
c. Type ping -t 192.168.3.1, and then click OK.
This causes a continuous ping to be sent to the first N300 Wireless Dual Band
ADSL2+ Modem Router DGND3300v2. Within 2 minutes, the ping response should
change from timed out to reply.
Note: You can use Ctrl-C to stop the pinging.
