Hi,
Wondered if anybody has ever managed to get an X-Kryptor VPN encryption device working before? Can't find any information on the net about this device, except a few reviews that briefly mention its name.
It comes with extremely poor documentation that is almost completely useless. As a test I'm trying to setup a very basic network just to try and get something working.
I am doing the following:
X-Kryptor box: LAN A interface configured with IP 192.168.0.10 LAN B interface configured with IP 192.168.0.10 Laptop connected directed to LAN B interface using a cross-over cable and configured with IP address 192.168.0.5 and default gateway
192.168.0.10.LAN A interface on the X-Kryptor is connected to a network on the
192.168.0.x range comprising WinNT domain controller, WINS server, DNS server etc.According to X-Kryptor documentation it is fine to have the same IP address on both interfaces as the device is not a router of any kind. Also because apparently anything that goes in one interface on the X-Kryptor just gets encrypted or decrypted and sent out the other interface.
We have configured the client software with a range of
1.1.1.1-254.254.254.254 and specified that traffic to these destinations gets routed to the X-Kryptor (192.168.0.10). Apparently by specifying this entire range the client is effectively in 'Full Lock-down' mode. This should that any request from the laptop is sent to the X-Kryptor.I can successfully make a connection to the Web Administration page on the X-Kryptor via it's LAN B interface. The X-Kryptor shows this secure connection exists on the the LCD display on the front of the device.
So the problem: Nothing else works! Can't connect, ping or get any response from anything the other side of the X-Kryptor box. All things that the X-Kryptor representatives said you should be able to do.
Has anybody even heard of the device before? There are very few references to it on the Internet at all, and the ones I found are people suggesting use of the box. But none of them have actually used it themselves!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
