Hi What are you using to create the vpn with the branch offices? If you're using FW-1 at all offices, then there shouldn't be any problem for the vpn to allow direct communication between all three offices. rich -----Original Message----- From: Mailing list for discussion of Firewall-1 [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of Kevin Reichhart Sent: 06 March 2002 16:19 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [FW-1] VPN having branch a communicate with branch b via the main office is good in theory but doesn't work. your second diagram is the proper way to do it and as long as you're not paying someone to do the configuration for you, has no additional costs. for mobile clients, you need another license for one server. they will authenticate against your management server so that's the best place to put it. the license is free, just contact your reseller and they should be able to get it for you. there are no advantages to having remote users connect to your branches. -----Original Message----- From: Reed Mohn, Anders [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 06, 2002 10:26 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [FW-1] VPN Wonder if anyone can give me a pointer in the right direction here.. In order to connect two branch offices to one main office (VPN) how should one set this up using FW-1? Preferably, the two branches should be able to communicate directly, but is this a more costly and complicated solution than having them communicate through the main office? I am thinking: |Main| ---- |Branch A| | | | |Branch B| versus |Main| --- |Branch A| | / | / | / |Branch B| And what about mobile clients? (min 20, max 50) Would one buy a single set of licenses, or would one license them for each firewall? I'm guessing it's cheaper, or at least simpler, to connect all mobile clients to one office, and have them communicate to branches through that. But that would introduce performance issues as well, I reckon. Any advice/ideas appreciated.
