If you want to use VPN connect to LAN from your laptop,you can use prosafe vpn client.
Firstly,create a client-to-gateway vpn on FVS318N,then use prosafe vpn client connect to the VPN.

Hi DaneA,
Not too sure I'm being harsh enough actually...
I also already selected the “Accepted Solution” as soon I posted that last reply so that's done.
I've also since created the required Policy on the End PointSecurity server's internal policies and forced the latop to re-synchronize with it (over the VPN I might add) so now that won't block it anymore.
I'm thrilled to have this working as I don't like poking holes though the firewalls as it defeats the purpose of having them.
