Hello, I've configured an srp541w router for a customer and successfully configured an IPSEC VPN connection with a Netopia router at a satellite office for the customer. I cannot seem to find a way to configure either a PPTP VPN connection or QuickVPN connection for remote users.  I did read something that stated that the router will only support either a site-to-site VPN or a QuickVPN connection, but not both at the same time.  Surely this cannot be true. What am I missing? Thanks, Sam ... View more

I have a customer with the following topology: Dallas: Netopia R910 router Windows 2003 Server San Antonio: Cisco RV120W Router Thin client devices connecting to Windows 2003 Server Okidata 3410 Dot Matrix printer with Dlink DP301P+ Print Server attached to Parallel Port If a user sends a picking ticket larger than 6 or 7 pages (not really that much data) to the Okidata printer with the attached print server, the RV120W router will completely lock up.  The connection between the two routers is lost, and the router must be physically rebooted.  This behaviour is fairly consistent on the larger documents described.  Pick tickets of less than 6 pages print without any issues.  I've examined the data stream and see nothing of consequence in the larger documents.  There is no effect on the Dallas router. An IPSEC tunnel exists between the two routers. Any ideas on what could be causing the router to freeze? ... View more

PIX Firewall 6.3(1) PIX Device Manager 3.0(1) PDM 3.0(1) I'm trying to do something that should be simple. We are adding an anti-spam device to our network. Currently, the PIX is directing SMTP traffic to our Exchange server (10.0.0.6). I'm trying to now direct that SMTP traffic to the anti-spam device (10.0.0.25). The PIX has an access rule and a translation rule. I have tried to change the IP address in both rules from 10.0.0.6 to 10.0.0.25. I continue to get a message when trying to change the access rule stating: No Static Network Address Translation rule is configured for the destination host or network on interface outside. Would you like to add a static NAT rule for the host or network now? I do so, but when returning to editing the access rule and clicking OK, the same message comes up, as if I have not added the NAT rule. I have also tried to change the translation rule, but it will not allow the IP address of 10.0.0.6 to be changed. If I try to remove the translation rule, it states the following: PDM has found that this operation will result in some security rules getting nullified. Please review your transaction/security rules before retrying this operation. Where am I going wrong? The rules in place function with the existing mail server - just trying to change the internal IP that the mail gets routed to. Thanks, Sam ... View more
