Accessing sites thru local network VPN hardware
We have a Prosafe FVS336G Firewall/VPN. We'd like to set this so that users within the LAN can access sites on the internet as if it were an external VPN. A loop back tunnel of sorts to other sit...

Yes, the Fios Gateway is a router ( Fios G1100). it does routing. The FVS336G is connected to one of it's Lan ports.
The task here is to use the FVS336G as a VPN service such that INCOMING data is encrypted ( trading data for example ) and geolocation is not available to sites ( via IP lookup -- verizon ).
So instead of subscribing to a VPN service we provide our own, in a nutshell.
Thanks.

Still working our way thru this. The DMZ should be set up on the prosafe, as there's TWO incoming Wans for loadbalancing, failover, etc.
Need to do the DMZ, . While I have the latest firmware, the model is not the latest ( ie. no DMZ LED)
Thank you.

Hi netsmart,
No need to DMZ on the FVS336G since it is the one behind the modem/router. You'll need to setup the DMZ on the FiOS to let the FVS336G pass the VPN.
Thanks,
