SSL VPN - Can Connect But No Traffic

Having quite a bit of difficulty configuring SSL VPN. I can now successfully establish an SSL VPN connection through the client (I get the green light) and confirm that I get assigned an IP from the SSL VPN pool. But I cannot connect to anything at all. When I try pinging the firewall (or any other IP address on the LAN) I get no results. When I turn on default gateway, I cannot access any external websites. It's like it's connected to nothing at all.

Even more odd is that the firewall rule I created shows traffic coming through:

And the logs also show traffic as being allowed:

I've followed the "Configuring SSL VPN for Remote Access" guide and have checked and rechecked my settings.

I also found another discussion that suggested a new host network be created and interface ports be deleted from the VPN config (Configure - VPN - SSL VPN (Remote Access), so I did that:

I've defined LAN as the entire subnet I'm using for the LAN:

SSL VPN settings have been left at the defaults, other than changing encryption to AES-256-CBC.

I've not bothered posting the other SSL VPN settings seeing as how I can establish the VPN connection.

This is driving me nuts. Might anyone have any suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong?

  • Just a further note: In tunnel access, rather than trying to add an IP subnet, thought I'd try to add an IP range to see if that might work, so I created new network resource within the SSL VPN (Remote Access) screen under Permitted Network Resources (IPv4) and added it. Or at least I thought I added it. When I checked the settings, it hadn't been added, nor can I even select the newly created range under Permitted Network Resources (IPv4).

    The definition was definitely created. When I go into System - Hosts and Services - IP Hosts, its still listed there:

    But it doesn't show up as a permitted selection under Tunnel Access:

    I must say, just as an editorial comment, that setting up VPN under UTM 9 was so, so much easier and straightforward.

  • Oops. Just found another post with the same issue. Will work through the suggested approach there.

  • And, turns out I already worked through the suggested solution, with the exception of adding VPN to the #Default_Network_Policy. Wasn't sure if it should be added to Source or Destination. Tried both but still no traffic, no pings, no traffic.

    Very frustrating. 

  • dma0,

    send me a PM and I will have a look at your problem.

  • Thanks and done.

    Also, from the client end, things (at least as far as I can tell) seem OK:
