We use the Group VPN with a shared secret. using the connection info i got the sonicwall client to work. then i added the linksys vpn box, just used the shared secret and settings from the client in the linksys. Hit connect and voila, i didnt have to use the client sw anymore.
I dont have it set up anymore, i sold the linksys, just wanted to test it for future use if necessary. My suggestions are, make sure the client sw works first. Check your settings in the linksys(hash, encyrpt, shared secret, etc.) Start with the most simple config, get it working, then upgrade your settings to a bigger shared secret, a higher encryption and such. Also, maybe bring your shared secret down a few characters, someone is saying the shared secrect can only be so long, mine isnt too long.

Levy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2002 1:21 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [SonicWALL]- Linksys BEFVP41 I recently got a Linksys BEFVP41 to test with the SonicWall. No problem getting it to work if I configure a SA specifically for the Linksys box (requiring that the remote end be a fixed IP address). More of a problem is getting it to work with the "GroupVPN" such that a static address is not needed. I am looking to use this as a replacement to the SafeNet client for people to use at home. Most everyone has some sort of NAT box at home, so this seems like a easy solution for home users as a alternative to the SafeNet software. Has anyone had any experience with this? Or offer some advice on how to configure the Linksus box to work as a SafeNet replacement? --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude/F-Prot Virus] ============================================================================ ======================To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the email put the following: unsubscribe sonicwall your_name The archive of this list is at http://www.mail-archive.com/sonicwall%40peake.com/ --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude/F-Prot Virus] ============================================================================ ======================= To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the email put the following: unsubscribe sonicwall your_name The archive of this list is at http://www.mail-archive.com/sonicwall%40peake.com/ --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude/F-Prot Virus] ============================================================================ ======================= To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the email put the following: unsubscribe sonicwall your_name The archive of this list is at http://www.mail-archive.com/sonicwall%40peake.com/ --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude/F-Prot Virus] ============================================================================ ======================= To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the email put the following: unsubscribe sonicwall your_name The archive of this list is at http://www.mail-archive.com/sonicwall%40peake.com/ --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude/F-Prot Virus] ============================================================================ ======================= To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the email put the following: unsubscribe sonicwall your_name The archive of this list is at http://www.mail-archive.com/sonicwall%40peake.com/ --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude/F-Prot Virus] =================================================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the email put the following: unsubscribe sonicwall your_name The archive of this list is at http://www.mail-archive.com/sonicwall%40peake.com/
