NetScreen Client VPN Configure

Nov 25, 2005 3 Replies

Hi All



Has anyone configure WIndows XP to VPN with a Juniper firewall using not using Netscreen-remote. In effect just using the XP's built client VPN features.



Thanks



Stephen


Yes, it's possible. I have it working - but it was a PITA, mostly because XP uses it's own terminology and hides anything that might be useful for diagnostics.

I expect it would be easier if the client had a static IP, but when the client IP is dynamic you _must_ use certificates for IKE authentication. I used OpenSSL as my CA.

Sorry, I can't give you the recipe - I spent hours of trial and error getting it to work, my notes are messy, and I don't have time to repeat the process and document it. However, if you have questions along the way I'll try to help - especially if you document the recipe :-)

Googling 'openssl netscreen' will help too.

Hi

Yes I will document this as I go. Did you use an autokey (IKE) or did you use L2TP?

AutoKey IKE with Dialup as the remote gateway type.
