Re: Phase 2 ID's for different VPN's with different Address Space



Scott,

    I thought of that, but I wanted to avoid having a different certificate
for each VPN on each gateway.  I also wanted to avoid having to do a separate
phase one for each VPN.  The number of VPN's I will need to support is large.
But perhaps that's what I ought to do. Either that or go ahead and try to get
new ID types defined.

    Thanks for your input.
