Hello.
A staff member wants to access a protected web site in order to download some articles but there is a connectivity problem between our LAN and the web site.
We do not have a firewall installed in our environment. Is it possible to connect to their services without a firewall?
We tried to use the Cisco VPN Client CD that was given by them.
We noticed that the VPN connection works from Dial Up because the PC uses a REAL IP but from our inside campus the PC uses a fake IP of type:
192.168.x.x, thus the VPN connection fails.
Staff member gets the following error message while trying to connect:
“Secure VPN connection terminated locally by the client. Reason: Unable to contact the security gateway.”
We want 20 PCs to have a VPN connection but we do not use REAL IPs for our internal campus PCs.
The staff member PC connects to internet (via a PROXY software that is installed on another multihommed PC with 2 network cards). A CISCO router connects as to our ISP.
Thank you in advance.
