Topic: PPTP - multiple NICs & Subnets  (Read 1780 times)

Hello, I apologize for my ignorance but I have a small question.

I am considering using m0n0wall as a virtual appliance in a VMware host.  Ideally I would like for the appliance to have 3 NICs:
  • NIC1 = WAN (public IP)
  • NIC2 = LAN1 (192.168.100.0/24)
  • NIC3 = LAN2 (192.168.200.0/24)

Would is be possible to configure a PPTP VPN that I can connect to that would allow me to access both the 192.168.100.x and 192.168.200.x networks, and if so how?  I'd rather use PPTP vs. IPSec due to it's support by most OS's out-of-the-box, but if I absolutely have to use IPSec I suppose I could.

I haven't found a definite answer, and it is the last piece of my virtual network puzzle.  Thanks in advance!

If you activate VPN you are able to add firewall rules for your VPN network like for any other network.
Allow traffic from VPN to 192.168.100.0/24 and to 192.168.200.0/24.
Don't forget to allow traffic to the VPN network from LAN1 and LAN2 as well.
