Static Address Pools

With static address pools, you specify one or more static IP address pools from which IP addresses will be allocated to the tunnel clients. You can configure static IP address pools as subnets or address ranges. Static address pools have these characteristics:

  • Static address pools require no configuration work outside of the appliance, and they support reverse connections and cross-connections.

  • Static pools require identification of one back-end address per simultaneous remote connection. If enough addresses are available to cover all possible remote clients (not just simultaneous connections) and no address conflicts occur, this method tends to be the most stable because the same address is typically assigned to the same client.

  • Static pools leave an IP address assigned as long as the tunnel remains up. If the tunnel goes down, there is a two-minute period during which the address is available, but only for reassignment to the same client. After that two minute period expires, the address is available to any client; address reassignment is performed using an LRU (Least Recently Used) scheme.
