Hi,
I have a fios-quantum-gateway modem/router. One of the routers port is connected directly to my Netgear-prosafe (firewall). I have not configured this with static IP as as I see some other issues when I configure it that way. However the Netgear is set to grab the required IP with fios-Quantum-gateway (say 192.168.1.aa).
When I try to VPN from my home network with IP 192.168.1.bb to 192.168.1.aa , I am successfully able to VPN into the Netgear network. However if I try to VPN on 192.168.1.1 , then it fails
I have created a portforwarding rule trying to make it more liberal
Rule:
| VPN_external | TCP Any -> 500 TCP Any -> 4500 ESP GRE AH UDP Any -> 500 UDP Any -> 4500 |
PortForwarding:
NGFirewall
192.168.1.aa. -> VPN_external
In additon to this, I have created routing rules
Name. Entry Destination Gateway Netmask
network Home/Office. IPv4 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.aa. 255.255.255.255
network Home/Office. IPv4 192.168.1.aa 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.255
my final goal is to VPN from external IP. A couple of years ago, I was able to do so. I am not sure way caused the external VPN to not work. Unsure if it was because of the change of router (from Actiontec MI424WR to Fios Quantum gateway).
I would appreciate some help.
Thank you in advance.
