Migrating from Dialer to PIX 501

[admin_2]

I'm currently connecting from my remote location to my companies PIX using the VPN Dialer 3.6.6. I have all of the group/user name and passwords. I have purchased the PIX 501. Is is posssible to create the neccesary tunnel settings using the PDM 3.0 VPN Wizard. I have tried several times with no luck.

Thanks,

Ron

Hi ron,

As far as I am aware, the PDM VPN wizard does not yet support easy vpn configuration. Without making changes to your company's PIX to allow the establishment of a site to site tunnel, you need to configure your 501 as a VPN hardware client (easy VPN).

The pix config section of the following document should help you transfer the settings from the dialer used at present.

Good luck,
