Bit of an embarassing issue here. We're establishing a pix-to-pix lab specifically for VPN configs. I've heard that placing a switch/hub in between the two pix's works when plugging cables up to outside interfaces.
Is this correct??? If so, then how are the gateway IP addresses (in 'route...
Zalex, thanks for the input. You're correct, the BEFSR81 works fine with Win2k VPN CLient/Server. Are yo forwarding specific ports or are you using DMZ feature for client location? I've seen it work with DMZ.
Yes, you will need a modem. The FVS318 does not have "dial" capabilities. Your modem would serve as the DHCP on the WAN side if your xDSl provider operates in that manner.
Bwilliam13, any thoughts on the Cisco 806 and 827 models versus the 1600 series? 806 & 827 pass GRE tunnels in and out. Only a few Netopia models in the sub $500 range pass GRE.
FYI, all users of Netgear FVS318.
My above issue is created when a subnet ending is "0" is entered. Netgear (in character) said they were not sure how this caused the router to lock up and offer no additional help to resolve the problem.
To avoid, be sure not to enter a subnet...
Skadaddle, from research I have done, the BEFSR11 will not allow proper authentication with a Win2k Serv VPN box on the outside. Seems it a GRE/Prot 47 issue per Bwilliam13. We had one we tested and arrived at the same results as your current problem.
Did you say you had a seperate VPN...
BWilliam13, thanks for the response. I suspected you would answer this way. I have little faith in the netgear equipment. From your experience, which router would you suggest we switch to given the price point of the netgear (~$119.)?? Don't need anything fancy. Something that works and can...
bwilliams, how would you explain a 'DMZ' setup on the VPN client and server side not authenticating (721)?
Setup:
Site 1. Win2k Server behind Netopia R3200 IDSL router with public/static IP routed directly to internal IP on server NIC with no filter.
Site 2. Win2k pro with Win2k VPN client...
Recently acquired Netgear FVS318 unit. We're testing and hoping for best, impressed with low cost of box. Capabilities remain to be seen.
Question: Anyone had issue with entering new (and first) VPN entry in router config and then router not allowing access back into web interface via LAN...
