Checkpoint VPN - Creation made easy...
28/06/2007 23:49 | Security
For anyone looking to set up a Secure Client VPN for the first time, there is a good secure knowledge article (registration and maybe even a valid support contract required) available (SK#20876) that is not particularly easy to find.. I think one of the strangest things for me to get my head around was a area that is QUITE different to setting this sort of thing up on a Cisco ASA of VPN300: If you use X-Auth (Pre-shared group passwords) there IS not group password. I can only assume that Checkpoint is using the users password as its pre-shared key...
Anyway, I ran through this article step by step and had VPN up and running in 30 minutes.
