Windows 7 / Networking

Configuring Advanced Connection Settings

If the Type Of VPN is set to Automatic, clicking Advanced Settings displays a properties sheet with two tabs. These tabs expose the following settings:

  • L2TP tab Used to specify whether a certificate (the default) or a pre-shared key will be used for authentication of the server by the client.
  • IKEv2 tab Used to enable or disable connection mobility-for more information, see the section titled "Configuring Mobility for IKEv2 Connections" later in this tutorial.
