[VPN] Re: VPN to Netgear FVS318 v2.4

[Travis Watson]

Todd,

I've never set up a tunnel with a Netgear, but I know that it is more of 
a SOHO appliance, of course. Their design people probably never 
anticipated something like a /20 being used by their customers. I would 
either just enter all 16 class Cs or, if it can do it, build the tunnel 
for a class B (if you have that much IP space anyway). I've done things 
like that for a work around. On the non-netgear side you can build the 
tunnel for a class B to, say, tcp port 3, and then the rules below it 
can give more granular access to the stuff you really want them to have. 
Just a thought.

The encouraging thing is that you can do it for a class C. If it can do 
that, a class B is (hopefully) possible.

Good luck,

Travis
