I have an 1812-K9 Router configured as a VPN Server and access its inside LAN using the Cisco VPN Client software. This works fine for most devices on the LAN however there are several which will not communicate with VPN connected clients?
I should mention that the 1812-K9 is not the default gateway for any devices on the LAN (they use another router for their internet access).
I guess my first question is how is the VPN Router routing traffic through to the inside LAN devices (i.e. what address do the LAN devices see / talk to).
I should also mention that I have the VPN Router configured such that VPN clients are provided with a DHCP address which is private, and different from the inside LAN broadcast domain.
Since it appears that only some devices won't communicate I'm wondering if it has to do with firmware on the end-devices (i.e. some check the subnet, see that it doesn't match and don't respond while the majority don't and do respond)?
I guess I'm just confused because some inside devices that do not have any default gateway configured are still able to communicate to the VPN client computers even though they are on a separate subnet?
Any explainations or links that may help me would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
