Firewall (for Clients)

The firewall settings you make for clients depend on their type of connection to the global network.

If ViPNet clients with the same IP addresses server use the same type of connection to the external network, you can do general firewall settings on their IP addresses server. For the clients themselves, select Assigned on the IP addresses server from the Firewall type drop-down list box.

For clients that use a different type of connection from that specified on their IP addresses server, you can make individual settings in the client's Firewall tab. For information on connection types, read About ViPNet Connections.

If the client connects with external network directly, ie. without using a firewall, remove the tick from the Use firewall check box.
If you want to select a connection type after installing ViPNet Client, choose Will be set manually from the Firewall type drop-down list box.
To make any other type of individual firewall settings for a client, refer to Client Connection via Coordinator, Client Connection via Firewall with Dynamic NAT, or Client Connection via Firewall with Static NAT.
