Hi!

I would like to configure my SecureClients to be able to access internet through the company when connected via VPN. Today they have to disconnect the VPN in order to access internet. Is this possible/recomended? Or am I defeating the purpuse of having the SecureClient licenses if I do that?

I think maybe you have configured a oversecure desktop policy.

in the outgoing make the rule very loose like any user@any any any no encryption. They should carry on connecting to you encrypted because that is what your checkpoint module enforces.

If you have any more trouble try using secure client diagnostics and look at the logs.

 
Thank you for your answer.

I have changed my outbound rule and as you said, it continues to encrypt to the VPN. However, I still cant access the internet.

I have an inbound rule saying Any - mygroup@any - Any - Block. But this rule doesnt seem to affect the internet traffic.

If I try to access the internet, the log on the client says that its sending out encrypted packages to that site, then nothing more :-(
