Re: VPN Help

use the split tunneling option to only access your office network and
not 0.0.0.0/0.

VPN and broadband.


	Hello,

	Mostly I just read the list and try to digest the information, but
currently I've
	run into a situation where I could use some help. We have one user
that has
	never been able to access the VPN using his Bresnan broadband
account.
	I have several users that utilize the same service and have never
run into any
	problems. I suspect it is something physical at his home, whether it
is cabling
	or something similar. This is coming from a stance of very limited
knowledge
	about his set up. We did look at the laptop and we were able to get
VPN'd in
	using dial up ISP. We are using Cisco client on XP laptops and this
is the 
	only PC that has had any problems. Possibly a network config
problem? Any
	idea where I should go next? Just troubleshooting here so any ideas
would
	be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Re: VPN Help!

Andy,

I believe you are UK based, if so, then try http://www.adslguide.org.uk/
for more information.

If the connection is a standard 'basic' business ADSL package, then you
will have a 256Kbps upload, with a 20:1 contention ratio i.e. sharing
the 256Kbps with up to 19 other users. This is also rate adaptive, the
upload speed will vary with line length / quality between 100Kbps and
256Kbps. The expected increase in speed may not materialise.

There are various options; upgrade data rate / reduce contention ratio,
or if you are in London then look at SDSL. 

Regards,

Nick

RES: FreeSWAN CA 2.02 x PIX - Trouble in phase 2

Hi Jean-Francois,

	I already made some experiences, but now I verified that the trouble there
is in the following point:

	- ignoring informational payload, type NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN

	- max number of retransmissions (2) reached STATE_QUICK_I1.  No acceptable
response to our first Quick Mode message: perhaps peer likes no proposal

      I found several references on this message (some 18 in Google) but up
to now I didn't get to identify indeed what is, maybe for my poor experience
with FreeSWAN.

	Thankful to all for the helps, but I still seek a light! :-)

Re: RES: FreeSWAN CA 2.02 x PIX - Trouble in phase 2

well yes, so you need to set both side to appropriate settings. Check
algorithms, protocols and selectors, they must match exactly (well lets
say exactly) to get the negociation to suceed. The debugs on the PIX
should show you the proposals. 

Again, if you want you should send your PIX ipsec config and freeswan
ipsec.conf file and one should be able to see what's not correctly
configured.

Re: VPN and broadband.


Does he have any kind of broadband router? I know certain routers either
need a firmware upgrade, or don't handle the ipsec traffic well at all. On
a Linksys AP/Router before the firmware was upgraded I would see the cisco
client connect, but then no traffic would get passed at all.

Re: VPN and broadband.

My best guess is this: many companies are now filtering out IPSEC ports 50, 51 and 500 to keep VPN off their
networks, unless you pay a premium. Comcast is one of the culprits, which has a major impact to many
customers. Standard cable internet service is $30 a month, their pro service which does nothing more but
pass these ports and allow you to host if you are so inclined. 

The moral to this story, if there is one, is that connection services are no longer going to offer the free
ride that the 'Net is famous for. Time to change the business model, again.

Re: VPN and broadband.

I believe the Cisco VPN client has a logging option.
Turn it on and see what it says.

Apart from that DSL connections have a problem with
MTU size on PPPoE. See this

Re: VPN PIX-FreeSwan established but no connection

On the PIX, do "debug crypto ipsec" and see the
output. 

How do you know the IPSec tunnel is established?

RE: VPN and broadband.

I don't think that's 100% true yet.. Comcast WAS talking about it - but I
don't believe anyone has done the deed yet.

The best pay around any ISP lock, UDP encapsulate your VPN :) they won't
know that your UDP port 40xxx is carrying IPSec :)
