Enable SSL VPN and Internal Exposted Host

Hi,

I have an internal IP exposted to the public IP and this also works like it should. External traffic is translated to that host and you can access that host from the Internet.

Now I wanted to add a SSL VPN Connection, made a firewall rule, a policy, a user, a local subnet, etc - but I am still not able to connect to the Sophos via VPN.

How can I realize both things?

  • Do you have just 1 public IP or do you have more?
    In case you have only 1 and are using DNAT to forward port 443 to the internal server you could change the port used for SSL VPN to a different port, or even better use UDP for SSL-VPN instead of TCP which will also make your VPN experience better (faster).

    If you have more public IP-addresses, you can assign 1 to the DNAT and the other to SSL VPN.
