FVS338 VPN problem

Hi

I've had my FVS338 3.0.7-24 with a single remote access VPN working for a long time to an iPhone. Today I wanted to configure a site-to-site IPSec VPN tunnel between the FVS338 and another site running Vyatta.

I don't know why but the remote access VPN doesn't work anymore and I can't get the site-to-site working at all. I've tried rebooting the FVS338 but it hasn't helped.

Is the FVS338 not capable of having both remote access and site-to-site working at the same time?

Thanks

  • shouldn't be a problem

    make sure IKE/VPN policy is totally different for both tunnels
  • Yes, both at the same time. Delete/disable the new config and check to make sure the iPhone config works.
  • Ok, I had to power cycle the FVS338 and now I can connect via iPhone and have a site-to-site tunnel.

    However, although the site-to-site IPSec tunnel is established I can't access resources on the FVS338 LAN except for the FVS338 interface. Do I need to make some other changes to the FVS338?

    Thanks for your continued help.
  • should not make any difference that iPhone was connected. if same resource work on iPhone and I would check make sure remote VPN client is not coming from same LAN subnet as your FVS's LAN subnet
  • No software firewalls active. I've been trying to find out what's wrong, but so far I have no clue. Does the FVS338 need additional configuring, i.e. firewall ports opened and/ or static routes or something?
  • nothing on firewall.

    usually destination pc is not trussing the IP that is coming from

    again. iPhone can connect to same destination that VPN client can not then likely hook that is issue with some IP subnet on remote that is either the same or firewall on destination device (not router ) is an issues
