VPN Client to PIX 515 Basic Configuration

[mmarange]

I have a been having trouble configuring the PIX to VPN Client. Can some one explain to me the basic VPN Setup, Using 6.1(3) software release. I have tried the cisco examples and Still can not get it to work.

Thanks.

what client are you using ???

there are some very good sample configs on CCO, here is the link

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/index.shtml#ipsec

scroll down to

IPSec PIX to Cisco Secure VPN Client

IPSec PIX to VPN 3000 Client

Use the sample config as a template and if it still doesn't work, post a query here again with more details.

Basic PPTP VPN configuration on the PIX, it will work with nat as well.

ip local pool vpnpool 10.0.1.1-10.0.1.254

sysopt connection permit-pptp

vpdn group 1 accept dialin pptp

vpdn group 1 ppp authentication pap

vpdn group 1 ppp authentication chap

vpdn group 1 ppp authentication mschap

vpdn group 1 ppp encryption mppe 40

vpdn group 1 client configuration address local vpnpool

vpdn group 1 client configuration dns 10.0.1.237

vpdn group 1 client configuration wins 10.0.1.237

vpdn group 1 pptp echo 60

vpdn group 1 client authentication local

vpdn username pptp-Username password pwd

vpdn enable outside

You can also add a Radius server for authentication. This is the minimum config for a PPTP connection VPN.
