Remote User Configuration - SnapGear VPN Router User Manual

You can continue to add more user accounts or modify account details. When complete, you can
configure other SnapGear VPN Router functions simply by selecting the appropriate item from the
Network or System menus.
One advanced SnapGear VPN Router function you may choose to configure now is to apply packet
filtering to the dial-in service – as detailed in Chapter 6, Firewall.
Warning: If you have enabled a SnapGear VPN Router COM port for dial-in, this port cannot be
used simultaneously for dial-out activities such as dial-on-demand Internet connection. If a
port was previously set up for Internet access, and is subsequently enabled for dial-in, the
Internet access function will be automatically disabled

Remote user configuration

Remote users can dial-in connect through the SnapGear VPN Router using their standard Windows
Dial-Up Networking software. A new dial-out connection must be set up on the remote PC, to dial
the telephone number of the modem connected to the SnapGear VPN Router COM port.
Once dial-in connected, the user can access all network resources the same as a local user.
For Windows 95 and Windows 98:
From the Dial-Up Networking folder, double-click Make New Connection.
Type a Connection Name for your new dial-in connection.
