When connected to VPN unable to access my LAN and internet using PPTP Sophos XG home edition

Khaled,

did you create firewall rules to allow traffic?

VPN to LAN and VPN to Internet?

You should use more secure VPN connection like SSL VPN or IPSEC/L2TP.

Hello lferrara ,

thanks for your response . i don't create any rule related to VPN . so , could you help me with the rule formula to add to allow the traffic for LAN and internet for VPN users .

and i use the PPTP for testing only .

regards,

khaled,

simply create 2 firewall ruleas as normally you do for other traffic on XG.

One rule VPN to LAN;

One rule VPN to Internet.

You can use this guide from page 11:

Hi khaled, 

In addition to Luk's comment, you may need to apply NAT MASQ on the rule between VPN to Internet Zone (WAN) . Also set to ANY - ANY in Source and destination . You may specify the source network set as your VPN settings. For LAN access NAT is not needed.
