I have been assigned to take over a few functions at work until they hire a real administrator. Existing firewall was fried and replaced with netgear FVS338. The VPN was not setup yet for VPN passthrough when they terminated the administrator in charge of this at the time so I need to figure out how to set this up to do so. In the settings menu for the FVS338, DHCP has been disable since we have an existing DHCP server. Everything else seems to be at factory default and I've updated the firmware to latest version already. I have a handful of IP addresses written down here that I am to use to set it up but I am confused as to how to do so. I've set a new policy hoping it is configured right and manually added vpn clients to the list. When I try to use the vpn on my laptop to the server, I cannot connect. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I apologize if the info I'm giving is not the clear but I&quot;m a beginner.<br />

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.

Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) is a protocol suite for secure Internet Protocol (IP) communications by authenticating and encrypting each IP packet of a communication session. IPsec includes protocols for establishing mutual authentication between agents at the beginning of the session and negotiation of cryptographic keys to be used during the session. IPsec can be used in protecting data flows between a pair of hosts (host-to-host), between a pair of security gateways (network-to-network), or between a security gateway and a host (network-to-host). IPsec is an end-to-end security scheme operating in the Internet Layer of the Internet Protocol Suite.

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.
