[vargas71]

Hi,


when I'm connected to my VPN client, I can't no longer access the Internet...it's that normal???

Once I'm disconnected from the VPN I can surf the web...

What could be wrong in the PIX or/and VPN configuration ???

Can you help me with that???

Can't access the Internet while using VPN

Symptom: after establishing a VPN connection, you may not be able to access the Internet because the VPN takes over your existing connection and all traffic to use the VPN default gateway on the remote network. The remote network may not allow VPN clients to access the Internet via their gateway.

Resolutions:
1) If you access to the VPN server only but not entire network, disable the "use default gateway on remote network" option in the properties of the VPN connection. To do that, go to VPN Connection->Properties->Network->TCP/IP->Properties->Advanced-, uncheck "Use default gateway on Remote Network".
2) Edit route table manually if you know how to or check routing page on this web site.

Thanks for the feedback. If you have cisco a router or firewall on other site, it is better to configure it. Otherwise, modity the routing table manually. For more tips or information, go to

Hi,


what do you have to configure on the Cisco PIX 506E firewall to solve this problem???

Is it something to do with the vpn group command or something else???

And can you tell me how ;o)
