Automatic VPN Configuration alert
Automatic VPN Configuration alerts occur when ZoneAlarm security software detects VPN activity. Depending upon the type of VPN activity detected, and whether ZoneAlarm security software was able to configure your VPN connection automatically, you may see one of three Automatic VPN Configuration alerts.
Why these alerts occur
Automatic VPN Configuration alerts occur when ZoneAlarm security software detects VPN activity that it is not configured to allow.
What you should do
How you should respond to an Automatic VPN Configuration alert depends upon which Automatic VPN Configuration alert you encounter, whether you are running VPN software or not, and whether you want to configure ZoneAlarm security software to allow your VPN connection.

If you have created an expert firewall rule that blocks VPN traffic, you will need to modify the expert rule to allow VPN traffic. See Creating expert firewall rules .
- If you are running VPN software on your computer and you want to configure the connection, select either:
Configure ZoneAlarm security software to support this VPN connection, or
I am running VPN software and would like to configure ZoneAlarm security software to support it
- If are running VPN software but do not want ZoneAlarm security software to configure your connection, select Do not configure ZoneAlarm security software to support this VPN connection.
- If you are not running VPN software, select I am not running VPN software.
How to see fewer of these alerts
If you are running VPN software, the only way to see fewer of these alerts is to properly configure your ZoneAlarm security software to allow your VPN software and its required resources. See Configuring your VPN connection manually .
