All these steps in the chain must support protocol 47, if any piece of equipment in the chain does not support that protocol then the VPN connection will be unsuccessful.

In any point to point VPN connection, there will be numerous pieces of equipment that the signal passes through eg corporate firewalls, additional routers/firewalls, software firewalls/filters etc. Some routers/gateways automatically forward GRE when required, by watching the negotiation on TCP port 1723. The most likely one is that a firewall somewhere between the two ends is blocking/dropping GRE packets. If you see LCP timeout errors in your log files, there are many possible reasons. Errors in your log files may indicate that one of your routers may have a problem forwarding GRE packets.

Check your router specifications carefully.

Note that the routers at both the remote and local ends of the VPN pptp connection must be able to handle pptp VPN passthrough for this scenario to work correctly. In order to make pptp type VPN connections in this network arrangement, the router specification must clearly say that it can handle passthrough pptp VPN connections. Not all routers support this protocol so VPN is not always possible in this network arrangement. Note that protocol 47 (GRE) is not a port and therefore you cannot forward it.

In server only mode, your router must be configured to forward TCP port 1723 to your server and must provide full support for protocol 47. In server & gateway mode your modem should be configured in bridged mode and automatically forwards all traffic to the server. VPN uses TCP port 1723 and protocol 47 (GRE). Please refer to seperate Howtos for configuration of the VPN client on Windows 2000, XP and other workstationsįor basic troubleshooting refer to entries made in the log file /var/log/messages at the time the VPN connection was being establishedįor advanced troubleshooting techniques see Background information This Howto gives practical examples regarding using VPN and making connections to remote servers and workstations.
