!!! info "Explanation of Phases and their Relation to Initiators/Responders"
|
||||
Phase 1 could be described as establishing the initial tunnel's connectivity from the Initiator to the Responder. (Local to Remote). While phase 2 would be considered individual devices establishing connections through the VPN tunnel. (Individual Endpoint Connectivity).
|
||||
|
||||
The responder's phase 1 & 2 lifetime values are 300 seconds longer than the initiator's phase 1 & 2 lifetime values.

!!! warning "Remote / Local Phase Lifetimes"
|
||||
Within the context of the remote and local VPN tunnels, the lifetime of the Phase 1 and Phase 2 encryption keys needs to be shorter on the intiator than the responder sides of the VPN tunnel.

## Repeat Steps on Remote Firewall
|
||||
You will need to repeat the steps on both firewalls, so one firewall is the initiator, and one is configured as the responder. Keep special note of the admonitions regarding initiator / responder / local / remote differences.
