  • 1.  SEP Firewall and Juniper SSL VPN

    Posted Nov 11, 2010 02:46 PM

    The majority of our clients (about 2500) are running SEP 11.0.4 MR2 MP2. Some are at 11.0.6. We recently upgraded our Juniper SSL VPN gateway to 6.5r6.  With the new Juniper Network Connect application, we are getting calls from clients with issues accessing resouces, shared drives, authentication ...etc. While troubleshooting this, we found that disabling the SEP firewall clears up all the connectivity problems.

    The existing firewall policy has been in place for a long time and hasn't caused any issues. It's basically an "allow all outbound - deny all inbound" policy, with a few tweaks for the SSL VPN adapter. Firewall logs don't show any thing being blocked.

    So, looks like the teefer2 driver doesn't play well with the Juniper Network Connect software? We did have one client with 11.0.6 having these issues too, so I'm not sure where to go from here, but the only workaround we have is to disable the firewall?

    It might be possible that the new VPN software update is causing the issue..

    Add firewall rule to allow all traffic from the VPN software ( .exe's and .sys of this vpn software)
