Allow/deny VPN connections through your router
Configuration > Forwarding Rules > DMZ
VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a network that uses a public network, such as the
Internet, to provide secure communications between a remote computer or network
and another network. Some offices often provide VPN access to their networks to
enable employees to work their remote office/home office, or while traveling.
If your office or place of work has allowed and authorized access for you to access their
network through VPN, the default VPN settings in your router have been configured to
pass through the most common types of VPN protocols, which typically do not require
any additional configuration changes.
1. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page”
on page 36 ).
2. Click on
Configuration at the top of the page, click on Forwarding Rules , and click on
DMZ .
3. Next to
PPTP, L2TP, or IPsec (depending the VPN protocol your corporation requires)
check the Enable option next to VPN protocol to turn on the VPN pass through feature.
