[vpn-help] Bidirectional VPN shrewsoft client <> netscreen

[VPN Client Product Support]

Hi Ben,

I have just checked that. I do not have any issues connecting back to the Shrew Client. A have created a bidirectional policy for that purpose, and anything goes smooth. Of course Shrew Client has to be connected; you can't initiate VPN connection from SSG side.

Regards,
Clemens Hoffmann

Thanks - I'll give it a go today. So what I was  attempting was not possible with Shrewsoft client alone?

Cheers,

Ben

Ben,

Since this is not related to Shrew I'm emailing you directly. Have a look at pfSense for setting up a gate-to-gate VPN tunnel. You can use IPSec or OpenSSL.

Best,

Hi,

I have used the shrewsoft client for a while, and have succesfully configured it to connect to a netscreen VPN endpoin (ns5gt running screenOS 5.40r8.0)

I am now trying to set up a bidirectional VPN such that not only can I see the LAN to which the netscreen is connected, but machines on that LAN can see my machine. After much trying myself, looking at routing policies and the like, I have not got very far. I also looked at the shrewsoft config guide here:

<http://www.shrew.net/support/wiki/HowtoJuniperSsg>http://www.shrew.net/support/wiki/HowtoJuniperSsg

Which seemed to mirror pretty closely what I had already, but only dealt with inbound traffic from the remote client.

Is there a way to acheive what I am attempting, and if so is there any information I could provide that would better help diagnose the problem I am having?

Cheers,

Ben
