Syntax Description

Keyword	Description
no	(Optional) Removes the peer MAC address from the VPN.
id	The VPN identifier. Must be a number in the range 0-1022 or the keyword "auto".
address	The MAC address to associate with the peer.

Defaults

No MAC address is associated with the VPN peer.

Usage Guidelines

This command associates a MAC address with the VPN peer. This will cause the VPN peer to appear as a device in Island. The device can then be configured and monitored like any other device in Island.

The specified MAC address can be the same as existing device on the Island. This is useful for applying the same configuration to a device regardless of whether it's connected to a local LAN interface or via a VPN.

If a VPN exists with the specified identifier, the existing VPN will be modified; otherwise, a new VPN with the specified identifier will be created. If "auto" is specified for the identifier, a new VPN will be created using the next available identifier.
