Hi @johng34456 

You should ask:-

- What type of VPN will be used, Policy Based or Route Based?

- If Policy Based, what networks need to be protected?

- What version of IKE will be used, IKEv1 or IKEv2?

- What algorithms will be used for encryption, integrity, DH etc?

- What authentication method, Pre-Shared Key or Certificates?

- Do you need to lock down the traffic to port/protocols?

- What hardware will be used firewall (ASA/FTD) or router?

 

HTH

I would also ask if there is any hair-pinning requirements.
