Chapter 11 IPsec VPN for FortiOS 5.0 : Transparent mode VPNs : Configuration overview : Transparent VPN infrastructure requirements : Before you begin
  
Before you begin
An IPsec VPN definition links a gateway with a tunnel and an IPsec policy. If your network topology includes more than one virtual domain, you must choose components that were created in the same virtual domain. Therefore, before you define a transparent VPN configuration, choose an appropriate virtual domain in which to create the required interfaces, security policies, and VPN components. For more information, see the Virtual Domains chapter of The Handbook.
