VPN issues
Guys I have created a VPN on each client machine in a LAN behind a cisco router to access an application on a remote Win2008R2 server. The VPN works well and the users are able to access this DB via the link. The VPN server assigns a local IP that is different from the IP on LAN. However, whenever they connect to the VPN, they are not able to print to the local printer on the LAN (not the VPN) or even access other local servers/services. On the VPN connection I have unchecked the "use default GW etc" but they still cant use local services when the VPN is on unless the VPN is disconnected. Site to site VPn is not ideal in this case because the AD sits behind a Cisco router. Is there anything I am not doing properly? Chin

Hi Chin, Thank you for your post. I guess your VPN client IP and local IP are on the same network cause the route issue. Please create a Static Pool with a different range on the VPN Server for the client machine. If you need to RDP server after VPN, check the Remote Desktop Connection if enabled printers in Local Resource tab. If there are more inquiries on this issue, please feel free to let us know.
