Use DHCP to obtain Virtual IP for this Connection - allows the VPN Client to obtain an IP
address using DHCP over VPN.
Require Distributed Security Client for this Connection - only allows a VPN connection
from a remote computer running the SonicWALL Distributed Security Client, which provides
policy enforced firewall protection before allowing a Global VPN Client connection.
Note: For more information on the SonicWALL Global Security Client and Distributed Security Client,
see the SonicWALL Global Security Client Administrator’s Guide.
Use Default Key for Simple Client Provisioning - uses Aggressive mode for the initial
