Re: [FW-1] SecureRemote ? (routes ?)



I don't believe the route table comes directly into play whatsoever. The
topology for your network (all the networks that exist behind your
firewall) gets communicated to the client and in stored in files (look at
the userc.c file) at the client. Any communications from the client
destined towards any host that exists on the networks described in userc.c
then gets encrypted. The destination of that encrypted packet then is the
gateway (firewall) that the client selected. In non-mep situations there is
only one gateway. In mep the client has to decide which gateway to use.
Once the gateway is decided the packet is sent along its way. Only at this
point is the routing table of the client used, to determine how best to
reach the gateway (normally the default route, the gateway of your ISP will
be used).

                    discussion of Firewall-1






question about a client running SR finds routes to
networks behind the firewall.

ie to access networks behind (or protected) by the
firewall, how does client box (running SR) route to
them ?  is the route table on the client box modified
?

(question is not about how encryption for the
connection takes place but rather how does the SR
client box find that the routes for networks that are
behind the firewall ?)
