* VPN and NAT Question
question
Assuming i setup a broadband connection with a hardware firewall and router
using 2 ip addresses given to me by the isp and i have all the other
computers on the network
using internal ip addresses using NAT.
If i then want to establish a VPN connection to a machine on the network
can it be accessable
if it has an internal ip address ?

Re: * VPN and NAT Question
You should be able to as long as your router is able to port forward.
You will need forward the traffic for vpn to an internal ip address that
you have statically assigned the one computer you want to use setup the
VPN connection.

Re: * VPN and NAT Question
Most new routers support vpn passthrough as an alternative to nat
forwarding, or if you use a draytek for example you could terminate the vpn
at the router which would be even more secure.

Re: * VPN and NAT Question
I think you mean a site-to-site VPN, yes? These are very nice solutions and
work quite well.
