Configuring the SSL VPN Client

4.2.4Managing Network Conflicts

As mentioned in the Configuring Split Tunneling section, a network conflict occurs when the client is unable to send traffic to a remote network as another network with an identical IP address range exists on the local LAN.

To resolve this issue, the SSL VPN administrator needs to configure the gate- way with all the IP ranges used in the remote network. When the client con- nects to the gateway, it extracts the list and displays it on the Profile pane of the Configuration dialog box as shown in the following figure.

You can then use this list to verify whether any of the IP addresses exist on your local network. If they do, you need set the client to route traffic, bound that range of IP addresses, to your local network.

Consider the following example. Your PC is a part of a local LAN consisting of a few PCs and a network printer. The PCs and the printer together use IP addresses ranging from 10.102.7.10 to 10.102.7.60. You need to connect to a remote intranet via SSL VPN and this intranet also uses the 10.102.7.0 subnet. When you log on to the SSL VPN and then try accessing shared folders on your local LAN, you end up accessing the computer on the remote network. To solve the problem, you need to configure the client to direct all requests from your PC for local resources, to your local LAN. This is covered in the following proce- dure.
