All I see in all tech forums like this one is a RUSH TO CONFIGURE with
little UNDERSTANDING of VPNs. The result is confusion waste of time
and fustration.
CISCO which now owns Linksys is really doing a poor job in training
its support personnel which are as confused as the rest of the world
about VPNs.
THE NETWORK:
laptop1---Router1--Internet--VPNRouter---Server
or equivalently:
NETA---Router1--Internet--VPNRouter---NETB
Router1 is Linksys BEFW11S4
The VPNRouter is Linksys RV042
www.linksys.com Their manual is almost worthless.
Their support inane.
Please DESCRIBE WHAT IS THE FUNCTION OF THE VPNRouter. What happens
when somone connects to NETB. Can she access the server even though
there is no VPN configuration on the server? should the VPNRouter
have VPN Passthrough enabled or disabled? Router1 which has no VPN
capability has vpn passthrough ENABLED.
