Option	Definition
Name	The name of the element.
Default VPN Profile	Specifies the Default VPN Profile for the VPN. By default, this profile is used for all tunnels, but you can override the selection for individual tunnels.
Link Usage Profile (Optional)	To use dynamic link selection for Multi-Link VPNs, select a Link Usage Profile element. When you select a Link Usage Profile element in the properties of a policy-based VPN, route-based VPN tunnel group, or a VPN broker domain, the settings defined in the Link Usage Profile element are applied to all tunnels in the VPN according to their link types.
DSCP QoS Policy (Optional)	Defines how DSCP matching or marking is done for VPN traffic in one of the following ways: Select an existing QoS Policy from the list. Select Select, then select an existing QoS Policy or click Tools > New to create a QoS Policy.
Apply NAT to traffic that uses this VPN (Optional)	Select this option if you want the NAT rules in the Firewall Policy to apply to traffic that it sends into or receives from the VPN, or if you want to use the NAT Pool feature to translate VPN client connections. This option affects the traffic that is transported inside the tunnels. This option does not affect the tunnel negotiations or the encrypted packets between gateways. These communications are always matched to NAT rules.
