BEFSX41 internet
forwarding
----------
hello. I have a simple
situation, that i am
having hard time figuring
answer to. I have a
linksys befsx41 router
setup to run a VPN over
the internet. that part i
figured out and got
working. Now the past
history. I had a client
who used to use microsoft
vpn (ptpp) to connect to
his computer at the
office so he could access
the company's network
resources (file servers,
printers, etc) when we
setup his laptop he made
sure that "use remote
gateway" was selected so
everything from his
laptop at home would be
forwarded to our network
this included his
internet traffic as well
as his file server
traffic. (This was
important because we OWN
the laptop he is using,
and he knows he is only
permitted on approved
internet websites, so we
monitor his internet
traffic when he is
connected to our network.
Politics aside, we like
this ability to have all
internet/network traffic
flow over the vpn into
our network where he can
use our internet
connection to access the
internet or connect to
other network
resources)
Now the
problem because of
changes in the network we
decided to put in a VPN
server which doesnt
support PTPP anymore for
his login. We invested in
a Linksys befsx41 router
for him to connect his
laptop to at home. We got
the router configured
properly to connect to
out office VPN. (he can
vpn without a problem and
access the network
resources as he did
before the changes) the
problem is his internet
traffic isnt flowing
through the VPN, it is
going stright out the
router to the internet. I
have spent hours online
with linksys and they are
not much help.
I
though of setting up a
static route on the
router to forward all
traffic, but we havnt
been able to get that
working. We also checked
google and some people
suggested for simular
situations to set "remote
secure group" to ANY
which will forward all
network traffic(inclduing
internet) to the vpn
connection. unfortunately
when we do that the
router responds "this
tunnel should not be
inititor".
Anyone
have any ideas about the
simple solution i am
overlooking here? |
