P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes
Some tips for this application:
Generally, without IPSec, to configure an internal server for outside access, we
need to configure the server private IP and its service port in SUA/NAT Server
Table. The NAT router then will forward the incoming connections to the internal
server according to the service port and private IP entered in SUA/NAT Server
Table.
However, if both NAT and IPSec is enabled in P-202H Plus v2, the edit of the
table is necessary only if the connection is a non-secure connections. For secure
connections, none SUA server settings are required since private IP is reachable
in the VPN case. Remember, IPSec is an IP-in-IP encapsulation, the internal IP
header is not translated by NAT.
For example:
Internal Server----P-202H Plus v2(NAT+IPSec)-----ADSL Modem----Internet----
Remote Network
5. VPN Routing between Branch Offices
This page guides us how to setup VPN routing between branch offices through
headquarter. So that whenever branch office A wants to talk to branch office B,
headquarter plays as a VPN relay. Users can gain benefit from such application
when the scale of branch offices is very large, because no additional VPN
tunnels between branch offices are needed. In this support note, we skip the
detailed configuration steps for Internet access and presume that you are familiar
with basic ZyNOS VPN configuration.
As the figure shown below, each branch office have a VPN tunnel to headquarter,
thus PCs in branch offices can access systems in headquarter via the tunnel.
Through VPN routing, P-202H Plus v2 series now provide you a solution to let
PCs in branch offices talk to each other through the existing VPN tunnels
concentrated on the headquarter. This feature is available in P-202H Plus v210,
P-202H Plus v250 and P-202H Plus v2100.
