Configuring NetBIOS Bridging with VPN
Windows networks use the Network Basic Input/Output System (NetBIOS) for several basic
network services such as naming and neighborhood device discovery. Because VPN routers do not
normally pass NetBIOS traffic, these network services do not work for hosts on opposite ends of a
VPN connection. To solve this problem, you can configure the DGFV338 to bridge NetBIOS
traffic over the VPN tunnel. To enable NetBIOS bridging on a configured VPN tunnel, follow
these steps:
1.
Select
VPN
from the main menu and
Policies
from the submenu.
2.
Click the
VPN Policies
tab, then click the
edit
button next to the desired VPN policy.
