I am using a netgear FVS318G VPN firewall/router. I configure

off...... I have configured individual IKE and VPN policies for each
individual based on the IP address assigned to the virtual adapter.
FVS318G supports 5 simultaneous connections but I can only get 1. I
also configured 1 client with Netgear VPN client..it attached and
when I connected with Shrew client both stayed attached. I then
connected second Shrew client, and first Shrew client got bounced
again, while the Netgear client stayed connected. Any Ideas ?


Hi Jim,

Are your Shrew clients perhaps getting bounced because they're all configured to use the same Local Identity (which I think is used in the inital contact/Phase 1 negotiations) when connecting to the Netgear?

If you're using XAUTH to identify the users for purposes of assigning the different IP addresses to the virtual adapters, that happens kind of in between Phase 1 and Phase 2, so by then the Netgear may have already decided that it's dealing with a re-connection (because the Local Identity info is the same) rather than a new connection.

Just a guess.
