Configuring NetBIOS Bridging with IPsec VPN
Windows networks use the Network Basic Input/Output System (NetBIOS) for several basic
network services such as naming and neighborhood device discovery. Because VPN routers do not
normally pass NetBIOS traffic, these network services do not function for hosts on opposite ends
of a VPN connection. To solve this problem, you can configure the UTM to bridge NetBIOS
traffic over the VPN tunnel.
To enable NetBIOS bridging on a configured VPN tunnel:
1. Select VPN > IPSec VPN from the menu. The IPsec VPN submenu tabs appear with the IKE
Policies screen in view.
2. Click the VPN Policies submenu tab. The VPN Policies screen displays (see
page
7-31).
3. In the List of VPN Policies table, click the edit table button to the right of the VPN policy that
you want to edit. The Edit VPN Policy screen displays.
