Creating custom IPsec templates

You can create a custom IPsec template and apply it to a region. IPsec templates settings are used when FortiGate devices negotiate IPsec tunnels (overlay links) with other devices.

When you add a region, you can choose one of the default templates. Alternately, you can create custom IPsec templates, and select them in regions. See also Adding regions.

You can also create IPsec templates to define the IPsec tunnel configuration between hubs in different regions. See Changing network settings.

To create custom IPsec templates:

1. Go to Configuration > Shared Resources > Network > IPsec Template.
2. In the toolbar, click +Create New.

   The +IPsec Template dialog box is displayed.

   

3. Complete the options, and click OK.

   The IPsec template is created.
