Hi<br />
I have a LAN to LAN VPN set between 2 draytek routers. The routers have built in firewall and have been a bit of a pig to configure as they are block certain legitimate traffic over the VPN.<br />
<br />
The issue I am currently experiencing issues with file and print sharing / ICMP on one direction only. I have http rdp access etc.<br />
<br />
Anyone got any suggestions as the where this can be being stopped. I cant find anything in the logs on the routers or the PCs that give me any info on where this is getting blocked/<br />
<br />
Any suggestions on where to start looking?<br />
<br />
Many Thanks<br />
Steven

Microsoft file and print sharing over VPN.

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

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.

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
