Good morning, folks! Here in my company, we have this network scenario:
Our network has one internal VPN server, based on a Windows 2003 Enterprise, using PPTP and GRE protocol. We have several workers who eventually need to connect in our network, to get some data and disconnect. Sometimes, they need to work in our network from home, airport, etc., just like in a "roadwarrior way". Following: ------------- --------- ---------- ------------- |PPTP SERVER| <---> |GATEWAY| <---> |INTERNET| <---> |ROADWARRIOR| ------------- --------- ---------- ------------- 192.168.0.0 /24 200.*.*.* /28 (ISP IP) *.*.*.* (any IP) I did a basic installation of pfSense firewall solution on a machine here, and set up all needed ports for our basic NAT (webserver, e-mail, etc.). Here follows the part mentioned for PPTP: Firewall: NAT: Port Forward Options If Proto Ext. port range NAT IP Int. port range Description WAN TCP 1723 192.168.0.14 1723 Allow PPTP (TCP 1723) WAN GRE 192.168.0.14 Allow GRE (Protocol 47) These rules were also inserted on Firewall: Rules (WAN section) Proto Source Port Destination Port Gateway Description TCP WAN address 1723 192.168.0.14 1723 * Allow PPTP (TCP 1723) GRE WAN address * 192.168.0.14 * * Allow GRE (Protocol 47) Then, I tried to connect from home to my server, putting its WAN IP on my VPN connection, but when I try to connect, nothing happens. Am I doing anything wrong here? Did I forget any point here? I tried to get some info on pfSense mail discussion archives, but didn't find anything similar to my problem. :-( Is there anything that I still need to do in order to free up traffic of PPTP and GRE protocols, from my box to the internal server? If anyone here have passed through this issue, please light up my path. ;-) Best regards, Luciano Pereira Areal Network Administrator E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mobile #1: +55 21 8176-7376 Mobile #2: +55 21 8169-3362 Nextel ID: 55*8*64731 Skype: luciano_areal Bizvox Voice Services Avenida Nilo Peçanha, 50 Grupo 1516 - Centro CEP: 20020-906 Rio de Janeiro - RJ - Brasil Phone: +55 21 2212-1650 Fax: +55 21 2212-1675 Website: http://www.bizvox.com.br/ _____ avast!
