Frequently Asked Questions

I have a home network and can't access the VPN, what can I do?

Frequently Asked Questions - Faq - Newcastle University
Home networks can be setup in a number of different ways and usually use NAT to share a single IP address with the rest of the network. Since there are so many different ways to run a home network we can't provide support to users on this issue. There are a few ways you can connect to the VPN but they may not all be possible depending on your ISP and the type of NAT router you use. These same options also work with wireless networks.

What is the VPN (Virtual Private Network)?

Satconxion - Support: FAQ
A VPN is a network in which at least one of its components uses the Internet but is works like a private network, using for that encoding techniques. It is the connection system that any SATNODE user utilizes to communicate with the server Host of SatNode. It is possible to activate terminals used with another supplier as long as, if we use the same satellite, the MAC address of the equipment has been freed in the previous supplier, since the same MAC address cannot be registered twice.

Why can't I access Up-To-Date? from my computer at home?

Frequently Asked Questions
you know, EBL already provides a campus-wide subscription to UpToDate?.

Why can't I query SNMP over VPN?

m0n0wall Handbook
With an out of the box configuration, you cannot query SNMP on the LAN interface of a remote m0n0wall over a VPN connection. Fred Wright explained in a post to the mailing list on September 12, 2004 why this is. Due to the way IPsec tunnels are kludged into the FreeBSD kernel, any traffic *initiated* by m0n0wall to go through an IPsec tunnel gets the wrong source IP (and typically doesn't go through the tunnel at all as a result).
