Hi Chris and Geoff,

We did exactly the same thing on R55, had exactly the same issue, and ended
up "fixing" it by turning off anti-spoofing on the WLAN interface as well.
We had a case open with Check Point but never really did resolve it.

interface = Tunnel Test failed (-121).

We just recently did this. We ran into the same problem, and it came
down to address spoofing. I don't remember all the specifics, but when
using office mode, the client uses the office mode IP address for all
packets. The WLAN interfaces topology is probably set to some other
address scheme that does not include this, and therefore it is going to
drop it. Unfortunately, if you setup the topology to include the office
mode subnet, the external interface may begin to drop traffic because
they expect traffic originating from that subnet. I think all we have
done to this point is disable anti-spoofing on the WLAN interface. This
does pose potential problems, so be careful.

We have not had the time to really sit down and figure out how to
implement this with anti-spoofing enabled on that interface, so if
anyone has any suggestions, it would be appreciated.

Regards,

Chris

Greetings, all.

It's my first post to this list, so please bear with me.

We are implementing a WLAN here.  The WLAN is sitting on it's own
interface on our R55 SecurePlatform box.  Due to the 3-5 minute lag of
being able to ping via WINS name (whether on the WLAN or from home) I
decided to use Office Mode.  Most of the WLAN users will also be VPNing
in from home via SecureClient.

When I connect up with SecureClient R55 it tells me Tunnel Test failed
(-121).  When I connect up with SecureClient R56 it tells me that it
connected successfully, but it exhibits the identical symptoms to R55.
The symptom is that I am unable to hit anything on the trusted side of
our firewall.

I researched the Tunnel Test Failed message and followed the step in
sk10980 but I still got the Tunnel Test failed.  I also set the Office
Mode to "Support connectivity enhancement for gateways with multiple
external interfaces" without any luck.  Has anyone gotten Office Mode to
work from a separate interface of the firewall (not external)?

I would be happy to provide any additional information or logs.

Thanks!
