The CMPI resource which is used to connect the SMARTConsole to the SMARTCenter 
is an implcit rule in Global Properties, which is applied before the encryption 
rule, hence will be presented to the peer gateway will be unencrypted.  
 
You can edit the implied_rules.def on the SMARTCenter, then create an explicit 
rule for CPMI and assign it ot a VPN community.

1.      Edit $FWDIR/lib/implied_rules.def on the SmartCenter Server. 
        
2.      Locate and comment the define ENABLE_CPMI line (by adding "//"): 
        
        Before: 
        #define ENABLE_CPMI 
        
        Change to: 
        //#define ENABLE_CPMI 
        
        
3.      Locate and modify :#define accept_cpmi_reverse. This modification 
varies depending on the Gateway version: 
        
        NG with Application Intelligence R55: 
        Line 270 : #define accept_cpmi_reverse 
        
        Change to: 
        : #define accept_cpmi_port_reverse 
        
        NGX R60: 
        Line 327 : #define accept_cpmi_reverse 
        
        Change to: 
        : #define accept_cpmi_port_reverse 
        
        
4.      Create specific CPMI rules for VPN Communities. 
        
5.      Install the Security Policy.

Note: 
This change does not survive upgrades. Back up this file for reference, if 
installing an HFA or upgrading. 

Workaround: 
If you have VPN-1 SecureClient available with Visitor Mode and Office Mode 
enabled, you can use SecureClient in Visitor Mode to connect to the Security 
Gateway that protects the SmartCenter. Then use the SMART client 
(SmartDashboard) over the Visitor Mode connection. 

You will have to use the ipassignment.conf file on the Gateway, to assign 
SecureClient users a static IP address and also allow that IP address as a GUI 
client. This enables clients behind an Edge XU (for example) to obtain a static 
IP when necessary.

Subject: [FW-1] SmartDashboard to SmartCenter Server over VPN fails to connect



When I try to connect to the SmartCenter server using SmartDashboard over a
VPN, it fails to connect.
The logfile shows "encryption failure: Different community ID, possible NAT
problem (VPN Error code 02)".
The strange thing is, I can ssh to the same SmartCentrer server from the
same PC over the same VPN without any problems.
I can also connect to any other device on the internal LAN without any
problems.
The VPN is between a VPN-1 Edge box and a ClusterXL system running NG AI
R55.

What do I need to do to get GUI connectivity?

Thanks in advance,
Michael.
