Re: VPN (racoon) problem if client is behind NAT router

Hi Eric,

The scenario is: racoon is running in the server and is not behind a NAT router, but the client is behind a NAT router (Dlink 624 router). Dlink 624 is IPSEC forwarding capable and this option is enabled. If we remove Dlink router from our scenario and plug the client to a direct link to the Internet (using the IP address used by the Dlink router), everything works fine.

I found some information concerning to disable "rp_filter". I did it to all interfaces, but vpn still doesn´t work if the client is behind a NAT router.

Thanks,
Anderson.

I don't have a racoon/l2tpd server setup, but I was looking into it and
I recall the racoon configuration requiring a flag, telling racoon it
was behind a NAT.  Sorry I can't remember the exact flag, but I haven't
set it up yet.
