    Feature/Application:
    This solution explains the configuration of a Site to Site VPN on SonicWALL firewall (UTM) appliances when a site has dynamic WAN IP address. The VPN policy is setup using Aggressive Mode.
    Procedure: 
    Network Setup:

    Configuring a Site to Site VPN on the central location (Static WAN IP address)
    Device used on central site: SonicWALL PRO 4060 appliance with SonicOS Enhanced 4.0.0.2e firmware.
    Central location network configuration:

    1.       LAN Subnet: 192.168.168.0
    2.       Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
    3.       WAN IP: 66.249.72.115
    4.       Local IKE ID SonicWALLl Identifier: chicago (This could be any string except it has to match the remote location VPN's Peer IKE ID SonicWALLl Identifier)

    Step 1: Creating Address Object for remote Site:

     - Login to the central location SonicWALL appliance
     - Navigate to Network > Address Objects page.
     - Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on Add button, enter the following settings.

     
    Name – newyork vpn,
    Zone – VPN,
    Type – Network,
    Network – 10.10.10.0,
    Netmask – 255.255.255.0

     -  Click OK when finished.

    Step 2: Configurating a VPN Policy:

    a.       Click on VPN > Settings
    b.       Check the box “Enable VPN” under Global VPN Settings.
    c.       Click on the “Add” button under VPN Policies section. The VPN Policy window pops up.

    Click the General tab

    a.       Select the Authentication method as “IKE Using Preshared Secret
    b.       Name: New York Aggressive Mode VPN
    c.       IPsec Primary Gateway Name or Address: 0.0.0.0

    Note:  Since the WAN IP address changes frequently, it is recommended to use the 0.0.0.0 IP address as the Primary Gateway.

    d.       IPsec Secondary Gateway Name or Address: 0.0.0.0
    e.       Shared Secret: sonicwall (The Shared Secret would be the same at both SonicWALL’s)
    f.         Local IKE ID: SonicWALL Identifier - chicago (This could be any string except it has to match the remote location VPN'sPeer IKE ID SonicWALLl Identifier)
    g.       Peer IKE ID: SonicWALL Identifier - newyork (This could be any string except it has to match the remote location VPN'sLocal IKE ID SonicWALLl Identifier)

     Click the Network tab

    Ø       Local Networks

    Select Choose local network from list, and select the Address Object – X0 Subnet (Lan subnet)

    Ø       Destination Networks

    Select Choose destination network from list, and select the Address Object – newyork vpn

    Click the Proposals tab

    Encryption: 3DES 
    Authentication: SHA1

    Enable Perfect Forward Secrecy(not checked)

    DH Group:  Group 2
    Life Time (seconds): 28800

      Click the Advanced tab

    Ensure that the VPN Policy bound to: Zone WAN
      - Click OK when finished

     
    Configuring a Site to Site VPN on the remote location (Dynamic WAN IP address)

    Device used on remote location: SonicWALL TZ 170 appliance with SonicOS Enhanced 3.2.3.0 firmware

    Network Configuration:

    1.       LAN Subnet: 10.10.10.0
    2.       Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
    3.       WAN IP: DHCP (As this is a Dynamic IP Address)
    4.       Local IKE ID SonicWALL Identifier: newyork (This has to match the central location VPN's Peer IKE ID SonicWALLl Identifier)
     
    Step 1: Creating Address Object for remote site:

     - Login to the Remote location SonicWALL appliance
     - Navigate to Network > Address Objects page.
     - Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on Add button, enter the following settings.
    Name – chicago vpn
    Zone – VPN
    Type – Network
    Network – 192.168.168.0

    d.      IPsec Secondary Gateway Name or Address: 0.0.0.0
    e.      Shared Secret: sonicwall
    f.         Local IKE ID: SonicWALL Identifier - newyork (This has to match the central location VPN's Peer IKE ID SonicWALLl Identifier)
    g.       Peer IKE ID: SonicWALL Identifier – chicago (This has to match the central location VPN's Local IKE ID SonicWALLl Identifier)

    Click the Network tab

    Ø       Local Networks

    Select Choose local network from list, and select the Address Object – LAN Primary Subnet

    Ø       Destination Networks

    Select Choose destination network from list, and select the Address Object – chicago vpn
