Do you need to enter   
   Moose,   
   Can you help me.   
   I have been asked to set up this Netgear router FVS318,   
      
   We currently use one VPN client per broadband connection.   
   We would like to utilise the connection for more users.   
      
   The VPN client software has a an IP destination for the remote end, is   
   this the local ipSec idenfifer.
