FVS336G VPN with L2TP/IPSec behind a NAT Router

Hi there,

anybody having experiences with FVS336G and L2TP/IPSec behind a NAT Router?
I already tried with a certain Zyxel model, but finally it wasn't able to make it, so i threw 350,- out of the window...
THX for your ideas,
Jorge

Model: FVS336Gv3|ProSafe dual WAN gigabit firewall with SSL and IPSec VPN

Hi JEstrellas,

 

Welcome to the community! 🙂 

 

Does you NAT router have a DMZ port?  If it has, connect the FVS336Gv3 to the DMZ port of your NAT router and configure WAN-DMZ rules if needed.

 

If ever your NAT router does not have a DMZ port, you may try to open ports on the NAT router to allow L2TP VPN or IPSec VPN.  

 

If ever you have already tried the suggestions I mentioned above and your NAT router is a combination of modem and router, you might need to configure it to full-bridge mode so that the FVS336Gv3 will be the main router which would be really suitable for L2TP VPN and IPSec VPN.

 

 

Regards,
