We have a site to site VPN between two XG units.
One site needs to be made very secure and not allow any access to users from the remote site, but there are a small handful of people like finance and IT staff who need access to SMB shares and other Non Web based services.
To get around this, I've tried to use the captive portal and user authentication against some firewall rules.
These work fine if I am at the remote site trying to access a web page in the secure site.
However, if I simply try to access a remote file server, or RDC over to the secure site, the firewall block me.
I can get around it by hitting a page on a server over there, authenticating to their XG's captive portal, and then the firewall rule allows my traffic.
So is there any way for my Mac and PC users to be able to get the Captive Portal log on to pop up when they try to access services outside of a web browser?
Or do we have to "cheat" and ask people to hit a static web page in that site first to auth, and then they can use the files servers / other services?
