Can't get SSL VPN to pass traffic

Hi,

 

I have read plenty of community posts and KB's but just can't seem to get my head around getting SSL VPN to work correctly for my network.

 

I have created a new SSL VPN (Remote Access) Rule:

  • Name: Remote Access
  • Description: Remote Access
  • Policy Members: Open Group
  • Use as Default Gateway: On (Have tried both on and off)
  • Permitted network resources: "Home" which is my internal network 192.168.1.0/24

 

VPN Settings:

  • Protocol: TCP
  • SSL Server Cert: ApplianceCertificate
  • IPv4 Lease Range: 10.81.234.5-55
  • Subnet: /24
  • IPv4 DNS: 8.8.8.8 / 4.2.2.2

 

The username I am trying is part of the "Open Group:

Under firewall I have created 2 network rules:

  • Name: LAN to VPN
  • Source Zones: LAN
  • Source Networks and Devices: Any
  • Destination Zones: WAN
  • Destination Networks: Any
  • Services: Any
  • Identitiy --> Match Known Users
  • Users or Groups: Open Group
  • All other settings are unchecked / none

 

Rule 2:

  • Name: VPN to LAN
  • Source Zones: WAN
  • Source Networks and Devices: Any
  • Destination Zones: LAN
  • Destination Networks: Home (192.168.1.0/24)
  • Services: Any
  • Identitiy --> Match Known Users
  • Users or Groups: Open Group
  • All other settings are unchecked / none

 

I can connect fine but no traffic is passed, nor logged or captured within the firewall:

 

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

  • Daniel,

    On rule 1 chance the source to vpn and destination zone to LAN. On rule 2 change the source to vpn and destination to wan zone.

    Thanks

  • Hi Luk,

     

    Thanks for the help, here is how they look now:

     

    I am still not getting any access.

  • Daniel,

    Remove home from destination network and uncheck match know users.

  • Thank you, that worked, I can now ping internally which is great, however my new problem is that I can't access the web via VPN.

    When I ping 8.8.8.8 I get a request timed out and if I ping DNS names such as www.google.com, It can't resolve.

     

    Are you able to assist me please?

  • Did you remove the home network from vpn to wan?

  • Yes I did, plus I moved the firewall rules above a clientless rule as it appeared to be hitting that rule rather than the VPN rule.

     

    Thanks

  • Hi , 

    Could you please show us the output of the command "route print" in CMD after successfully connected via SSL VPN.
