Connect from guest network to VPN

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to Sophos Community.

To verify, What kind of VPN are you referring? Remote(IPsec/SSL)/Site-to-site?

Also, for safety concerns and consideration, the purpose of the guest networks is to separate unknown/unsecured devices from the internal network. Providing VPN access to guest users involves security risks.

You may create a VPN policy/add to permitted network resources, allow Wifi to VPN on device access, and create a separate Firewall Rule for the guest network.

For more information, refer to the following link. You can also check the Sophos Assistance to guide you.

thanks for your reply. I am referring to SSL VPN. My issue is that when contractors (that have vpn access) are at our premesis to do some work, instead of giving them our internal wifi password they connect to the guest network and then connect to vpn.

Hello,

I am considering that you may be using the Sophos AP/APX devices in the network. You may create the separate zone with the new SSID and your guest users can connect to that network.

I am using unifi aps

Hello,

Is it deployed in bridge or route mode? You might need to work out on your APs to achieve this.

You may create the separate SSID on Unifi APs.
