Guided Setup for AOS-10 VPNC Groups

HPE Aruba Networking Gateways deployed at a data center can function as a headend gateway or a VPNC. The VPNCs aggregate traffic from all branch offices. Branch Gateways (BGWs) establish secure Internet Protocol security (IPsec Internet Protocol security. IPsec is a protocol suite for secure IP communications that authenticates and encrypts each IP packet in a communication session.) tunnels to one or more headend gateways over the Internet or other untrusted networks.

You can configure a VPNC group using the Guided Setup, Basic mode, or Advanced mode. This section describes the procedure for configuring VPNCs using the Guided Setup.
