Troubleshooting the Firewall VPN Client 171
Restarting the
Firewall with Active
VPN Tunnel
If you restart the Firewall with a VPN Client active you must deactivate
and reactivate the IRE VPN Client. Restarting the Firewall kills all the
current VPN tunnels on the Firewall side. In this case the IRE VPN assumes
that the connection is still intact and sends encrypted packets that
eventually get dropped.
A easy way to restart the negotiation on the client side is to click on the
floppy disk icon at the top of the Security Policy Editor screen.
Export the VPN Client
Security Policy File
1 Select Export Security Policy in the File menu at the top of the Security
Policy Editor window.
2 Click Yes to lock the Security Policy and prevent remote users from
changing the VPN client policy. Click No to permit remote user
configuration. Then name the security policy database file (*.spd) and
save it to a local folder or to a floppy disk.
Import the VPN Client
Security Policy File
1 Select Import Security Policy in the File menu at the top of the Security
Policy Editor window.
2 Browse your local hard drive for the desired security policy database file
(*.spd) and click Open.
Uninstall the VPN
Client
1 To uninstall the Firewall VPN Client, open the Control Panel in the
Windows Start menu.
2 Double click Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel window.
3 Select IRE VPN Client in the Add/Remove Programs Properties window
and click Add/Remove.
4 Click Yes in the Confirm File Deletion window to delete the VPN client
and all of its components.
5 Click Yes to save the security policy database file to the Firewall VPN
Client.
