Hi, I have a question about upgrading a connection for a remote site and changing the VPN peer on a VPN-3000.

BACKGROUND
In the field I have a branch office with a Pix that provides their office connectivity and VPN tunnel back to HQ. The branch office is having its bandwidth increased by swapping to a new provider that offers a metro E package. The IP addressing of the firewall will change but all the other services and internal addressing remain the same. At HQ I have a VPN-3000 with that wonderful point / click thingy instead of a real usable command interface. On the VPN-3000 I have a profile that sets up a lan to lan VPN (their wording) back to the Pix at the branch.

QUESTION
My question is assuming the Pix in the field is updated and all other things work will I simply need to change the peer address on the VPN-3000 to reconnect the VPN? Also, am I correct in my thinking that you change the peer address under configuration / policies / ipsec / L2L/ (profile)? There's a peer address that matches my far end, are there any other instances or things I should adjust? Pointers would be appreciated. To me it looks like I make this one change and it should work but I want to make sure before I have a guy sitting in the field holding his shmeckle while I try to figure things out.:)

Thanks
Scott
