Hi there, I don't know if I am right here but I'll ask anyway.
To get external access to the university's intranet my university offers the cisco vpn-client. I can login, a connection is established but I cannot access the intranet. Looking through the connection settings I noticed, that cisco configured the LAN connection's IPv4-settings to a static IP without assigning an actual IP. Anyhow, an IP for two DNS servers is assigned.
For a while now I used this little workaround:
- Starting and connecting with the Cisco VPN client
- Opening the settings of the connection and reconfiguring it to dynamic IPs
- Disconnecting the VPN connection
- Reconnecting
- IPs are assigned via DHCP
- Accessing the intranet.
For some reason this does not work anymore, when reconnecting cisco assigns the above stated settings to my connection.
Does somebody know how to solve this problem and/or know where the problem may be?
Thanks in advance Marian Ritter
