Overview
Cisco products that include VPN support often use Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) protocol tunnel over IPsec encryption. This chapter describes how to configure a FortiGate unit to work with this type of Cisco VPN.
Cisco VPNs can use either transport mode or tunnel mode IPsec. Before FortiOS 4.0 MR2, the FortiGate unit was compatible only with tunnel mode IPsec.
