[vpn-help] Accessing several networks

Hi All,

In addition to Kevin's suggestions, the "optain policy automatically" work only if the Zywall supports this feature. We are using Juniper devices (they aren't support the automatic policy), we overlapped all of our internal networks with a /22 subnet mask.

All the best,

Tamas

Hi Stephane,

The problem, I think, is that for phase 2 negotiation to complete, the specified policies have to match on each side.  However, when you define the policy as 192.168.1.0-192.168.3.0 on the Zywall and then put 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0,
192.168.3.0/255.255.255.0 in the Shrew policy, they do NOT appear to be the same when negotiation is done.

Easiest might be to try the checkbox on the Shrew policy tab that says "Obtain topology automatically".

You could also try this:  Explicitly use 192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.0/24 and 192.168.3.0/24 as the subnets in the the zywall. In Shrew, use 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0 and 192.168.3.0/255.255.255.0.  This should make the policies match.

If the Zywall won't let you put in multiple subnets, you could use
192.168.0.0/22 (Zywall) and 192.168.0.0/255.255.252.0 (Shrew) although that might cause problems if 192.168.0.0 is used for something else.

Also, in the zywall, with the policy 192.168.1.0-192.168.3.0, how have you specified the subnet mask?  I'm not actually sure how many IPs that would include in the third subnet - maybe just one single IP,
192.168.3.0 itself?  Or does the Zywall default to a /24 if not specified?
