Dear support team,
I want to use monowall as a VPN server thru PPTP to connect from the internet to a private network on a primary school.
Before connecting the monowall behind the router and for testing purposes I have setup my environment as follows:
LANWindows XP (A) - IP 192.168.1.100 /24 (DHCP client)
|
|
monowall with DHCP enabled - LAN IP 192.168.1.240 /24
monowall DHCP client - WAN IP 192.168.0.111 /24
|
WAN |
Windows XP (B) - IP 192.168.0.105 /24 (DHCP client)
Internet gateway - IP 192.168.0.254 /24
From the Windows XP (A) client on the LAN I can access the internet and poll all the IP addresses on the WAN.
From the Windows XP (B) client on the WAN
it is not possible to ping the WAN IP address 192.168.0.111 of the monowall and I think this needed before I can proceed with the setup of VPN.
On the WAN side are no rules defined, is it necessary to setup rules on the WAN side?
The option
'Block private networks' has been deselected on the WAN I/F page.
I would appreciate your help greatly!
