Defining a Firebox as a DVCP Client (Dynamic Fireboxes Only)

If you are creating a tunnel to a Firebox with a dynamic IP address, you must define it as a DVCP client to enable VPN Manager to contact it.

 

From Policy Manager:

  1. Select Network => DVCP Client.
  2. Enable the checkbox marked Enable this Firebox as a DVCP Client.
  3. In the Firebox Name field, specify the name of the Firebox.
  4. To log messages for the DVCP client, enable the checkbox marked Enable debug log messages for the DVCP Client.
  5. To add DVCP servers that the client can communicate with, click Add.
  6. Enter the IP address. Enter the shared secret. Click OK.
  7. Reboot the Firebox.
    The Firebox contacts the DVCP server.
