Bug #965
closed
IPSec configuration network selection doesn't match rest of UI
100%
Description
Related to Feature Request #946, but not quite the same...
Everywhere else in the 2.0 UI (mostly rules, but I think I've seen it elsewhere), where I'm required to select any/host/network/etc. the drop-down includes "LAN address", "LAN subnet", "WAN address", "WAN subnet", etc. and the "LAN" and "WAN" names are automatically updated to reflect renamed interfaces.
When configuring IPSec Phase 2 SAs, the option is merely "LAN subnet" or "network". The first problem is that "LAN subnet" is meaningless if you've renamed your LAN interface and can't remember which one was the original "LAN"; the obvious enhancement would be to allow "LAN subnet", "OPT1 subnet", "OPT2 subnet", etc. (as well as allowing aliases, per Jim's Feature Request). That leads to the further enhancement that LAN/OPT1/etc should be replaced with the actual i/f names.
Other than that, IPSec is working great :-).

Confirmed that I've seen this fix in action when heavily configuring several IPsec VPN (site-to-site and Mobile) configurations over the past few weeks since this bug was marked as Feedback, and I remember the old way before, definitely improved and I haven't run into any issues with it.
