Can a PIX 501 connect to a VPN service?

chris.lantz

Can a PIX 501 6.3(4) establish a VPN to a provider such as www.privateinternetaccess.com?  They claim to support PPTP and IPSEC/L2TP.  If so, how would the PIX need to be configured?

Thanks.

No, none of the networking gear (inc. ASA) can be configured as PPTP client, nor L2TP over IPSec client.

Both are PC or MAC software.

No, you can't configure PIX as the PPTP client nor IPSec/L2TP client.

For PPTP and L2TP over IPSec, you can use your PC as your PC will have PPTP client to connect to the provider.

What about an ASA model with a newer operating system?
