At the present time GNAT Box only supports firewall to firewall VPN. We are working on a client for the VPN that will allow you to log in using the method you had described.

Does the VPN only work between 2 Gnatbox systems? I would like to be able to
dial into my ISP from home (without Gnatbox) and connect to work through a
VPN.  Is that possible with Gnatbox at this release?

Send postings to: gb-users_at_gta_dot_com Access the list archives at: http://www.gnatbox.com/gb-users/ ---------------------------------- Sure, many of us who work at GTA have GNAT Box systems at home and have VPN connections to the office, (so we have many VPNs defined). Setting up more than one remote site is exactly the same as setting up one.

1. Define the Security Association (VPN)
2. Add a remote access filter to accept the ESP/AH remote connection.
Or simply create 1 filter with an Address Object like "Remote VPN
Sites".  Then add the new remote site to the "Remote VPN Sites"
object.  This way simply adding/deleting IP addresses to the Object
will handle the Remote Access issue.
3. Create both an inbound and outbound IP Pass Through filter for the
VPN.  Once again you can do this with an Object if the rules will be
the same for all sites.  Or you can be very specific and create many
rules for inbound/outbound VPN access.

Perhaps there isn't so much written about this in the VPN section,
because it follows most of the same concepts as the filters.  I'm
sure we will enhance and update the VPN section after we learn a bit
more of how GNAT Box users approach the VPN.
