Hi,

I am trying to setup a vpn connection between two sites.   One uses a Sonicwall 3060 and the other 2040.   I am able to setup the vpn tunnel just fine and the two sites can communicate with each other's subnets.   Here's my trouble.  I want to restrict users from siteA from being able to access all hosts in SiteB(they actually just need access to one host)  and i'm not sure how to do that.  It doesn't seem like you can use firewall access rules to do it(could be wrong)

Here's some details on my config:

Site A:   lan subnet:  172.30.8.0 255.255.252.0
Site B:   lan subnet:  172.32.4.0 255.255.252.0


Here's what i've tried so far,

On siteA's VPN config, i've specified as the remote destination network for SiteB as 172.32.4.5 mask 255.255.255.255 instead of the whole subnet which would be 172.32.4.0 255.255.252.0.   I thought this would allow all users from Site B to see all hosts on Subnet attached to SiteA but with SiteA users only able to see the host 172.32.4.5 located on SiteB.  This doesn't work and the VPN tunnel doesnt get established.

Hope I've explained this properly.  If anyone knows a way to accomplish what i'm trying to do I would greatly appreciate the help.  

Thanks.
