VPN IP filtering question

[PC]

Hi,

I have a Windows 2000 VPN server that works fine until I apply IP filtering.
With filtering applied all clients can connect and are authenticated without
any problems.

The ploblem is I can't seem to access any network resources. When I try to
ping any host (either by IP or netbios name) I receive one successful reply
and 3 time outs. This is the same for any host except the VPN server itself.

After this all pings time out unless I don't ping for at least 5 mins then I
will receive one reply again.How or why is this happening

This seems like a RRAS question (which it is I guess) but the problem only
occurs when filtering is applied so I thought maybe somebody here could
help.

Thanks for any advice

Where exactly are you doing the filtering - tcp/ip filtering, ipsec filtering, Remote
Access Policy filtering, or on the external adapter in Remote Access Management
Console? --- Steve

Hi Steve,

Thanks for your reply.

I'm doing the filtering on the public interface on the VPN server. I have
set Input and output filters in Ip Routing > General > Right click the
interface facing the internet > then properties and Input and Output
filters.

Any ideas

Regards

Paul

Check your filter configurations so that the local subnet is allowed and not just the
IP address of the VPN server. --- Steve
