Creating an IP tunnel

Creating an IP tunnel

You need to create an IP tunnel object to specify not only the local and remote IP addresses, but also the protocol parameters for the VPN connection to use with your Citrix Netscaler VPX.

To do so:

  1. Navigate to System > CloudBridge Connector > IP Tunnels.
  2. On the IPv4 Tunnels tab, click Add.
  3. Enter the following parameters:
    • Name
    • Remote IP (IP of remote VPN peer)
    • Remote Mask
  4. Select Subnet IP (SNIP) in the Local IP list.
  5. Choose the appropriate SNIP to be used as the VPN endpoint from the Local IP list.
  6. Select IPsec as the protocol from the list.
  7. Choose the previously created profile name from the IPsec Profile Name list.
  8. Click Create.

To create an IP tunnel in the CLI, use the following syntax:

> add ipTunnel IPsec_tunnel1 10.115.168.144 255.255.255.255 10.143.220.106 -protocol IPSEC -ipsecProfileName IPsec_Profile1
