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.

The router's gateway must point to Multi-Path VPN's LAN address for Multi-Path VPN to work with internal routers. Tunnels will have to be configured for all nodes that have to be accessed from the outside. Static routes will have to be configured on Multi-Path VPN for all nodes that must be accessed from the outside, pointing to the external interface of the router. (The alternative method of accessing internal servers is by using Reverse Port Mapping). See below. See similar questions...

We do have users who are using MessagePal to communicate among users located at different ends of a VPN. We have several suggestions if you're trying to make it work in your VPN environment: MessagePal relies in part on 'UDP broadcasts' over port 8473 to communicate status between MessagePal clients. In order to make MessagePal work over your VPN link, you need to enable the forwarding of port 8473 UDP broadcast packets through the routers on each side of the VPN. See similar questions...

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.

Yes. MS Networking, NetWare IP, and AppleShare IP all work over a VPN connection. Drive mounting or file sharing which relies on non-IP protocols such as AppleTalk or IPX will not work. However, TSS does not support mounting of servers outside of NUNET. If you wish to mount a department's server, please contact your UNITS representative for instructions. See similar questions...
