Step 7 | Click Next. |
Step 8 | In the IKE Settings area, CDO generates a default Pre-Shared Key. This is a secret key string that is configured on the peers. IKE uses this key during the authentication phase. It is used to verify each other when establishing a tunnel between the peers. |
Step 9 | Click Next. |
Step 10 | In the Finish area, review the configuration and continue further only if you’re satisfied with the configuration. By default, the Deploy changes to ASA immediately check box is checked to deploy the configurations immediately to the ASA device after clicking Submit. If you want to review and deploy the configurations manually later, then uncheck this check box. |
Step 11 | Click Submit. The configurations are pushed to the Multicloud Defense Gateway. |
The VPN page in CDO shows the site-to-site tunnel created between the peers. You will be able to see the corresponding tunnel in the Multicloud Defense Gateway portal.
