Quoting cdschuler () home com:
Today I met with a VPN appliance manufacturer. I was told that there is a significant problem with NAT when there is a router between the VPN appliance and the end user. From what I'm told the problem lies with the fact that both the VPN and the router are conducting NAT between each other and therefore there needs to be transparent NAT to alleviate this. They don't have the software patch yet. Is there a patch for this on the software side rather than purchasing their additional hardware to fix it? Thank you, Cameron Schuler
Every router I know of that does NAT'ing, has the ability to turn off this feature. Decide, NAT on the router or NAT on your VPN appliance, turn one off, preferably, in your case, turn it off on the router. -mike The information contained in this message is not necessarily the opinion of Hawk Technologies, Inc. _______________________________________________ Firewall-wizards mailing list Firewall-wizards () nfr net http://www.nfr.net/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
