Route based VPN loopback

I have a Route based VPN from SOPHOS to SOPHOS. I need to create a loopback to allow a connection back to a server.

I am not able to find any information regarding this. In fact from what I can see I am not sure I can even do this with a normal IPSEC Site to Site VPN.

Hi Tony Steele ,

Thank you for reaching out to the community,

You can create loopback rules from destination NAT rules to allow internal hosts to communicate with other internal hosts over the external IP address or the domain name. For example, create a destination NAT rule to translate incoming traffic to your servers and create a loopback rule.

To create a loopback rule, specify the following destination NAT rule criteria:

Original source: Any

Translated source: Original

Translated destination: Don’t set to original.

REF1 - NAT
REF2 - NAT with route-based IPsec How-to-article
Thanks & Regards,
