Virtual XG Appliance - Sophos Connect behind another firewall

Alex Ghiorghies

Hi,

I am doing a bit of research for a customer regarding the Sophos Connect VPN feature.

The customer is planning to install a Virtual XG on their VMWare environment. Currently the environment is behind a different firewall, a dedicated Public IP address on the existing firewall will be configured to NAT 1:1 with the Private WAN IP on the Sophos XG.

Is it possible to configure Sophos Connect in this scenario and have remote users connect remotely to the environment from other locations? This is the only Sophos functionality that will be used for now.

Thank you,

Alex

    It is an IPsec tunnel in general so it SHOULD work. Have not tried it myself but have done it with regular IPsec tunnels.

     

    You need to Port forward UDP 4500 and IKE UPD 500 to the XG firewall.

     

    The interface on the XG that you are going to use needs to be in Zone WAN, but I do not know if it will accept RCF1918 IP-addresses to set it up.

     

    Best way to figure it out is to try :)
