VPN Solutions with
Dynamic IP's
----------
I'd like to hear what
everyone is using to
create site to site VPN's
using dynamic IP's on
both sides. So far I've
heard about a SonicWall
TELE3 to TELE3 VPN
solution , Symantec 200R
VPN/Firewall Appliance to
200R VPN, and someone
also mentioned Win2k to
Win2k VPN's can also
handle dynamic IP's. What
solution have you used to
deal with this issue? | StefanBauer

Only one end can be
dynamic ..
----------
... one end always needs
to have a fixed
adress.
If both
ends are dynamic, how do
they know where the other
is? They don't. If you
and your girlfriend
change phone-numbers at
the same time, how can
you can to her or she to
you? No way.
so at
least one end _needs_ to
be fixed.
doesn't
matter if you use vpn in
hardware (like netscreen
or sonicwall) or in
software (win2000). | drewfs

VPN & dynamic IP
----------
But...
If you still
have your girl friends'
email addr you could do
the
following:
-Client
emails a request to the
server
-Server
validates the identity of
the client with a
certificate, generates a
'session password',
checks its' current IP
addr, and encripts this
info which it emails back
to the client.
-Client now knows the
route to the server. And
can procede with a
session.
-When the
server senses that the
last active client is
logged off it renews its'
IP addr.
Just a
thought. Could this
work?

authenticated?

VPN & dynamic IP
----------
Hi;
This is just a
thought. What I've got is
two ADSL connections to
the internet. The IP addr
on each side seem to be
stable as long as the
email is automatically
checked every few
minutes.
My
thought is that email
addr's are consistant, so
that could be used as a
channel to establish the
IP of the server side. If
ALL the required steps on
the server side can be
performed by... perhaps a
script... then one of the
varible IP's could be
resolved.
I'm just
learning networking &
perhaps I'm out in left
field. But is that a
possible
solution?

VPN via dynamic address
----------
Is there a solution for
this yet?
I would like
to connect three offices
and the provider will
only let me pull dynamic
addresses. |
