We created a Site to Site VPN and cannot ping accross to the other side

The vpn tunnel is up, we can ping from the diagnostic tool on the appliance. We cannot ping from a computer on the main network to a computer on the remote network.

Thanx

Hi @davegarn99, I would first check the firewall access rules to confirm ping is allowed. Next, I would confirm that the computer's firewall settings allow for connections (such as ping). If it still doesn't work I would take a packet capture on either (or both) firewalls to see what those ICMP packets are up to.

Pcap says no response found. Although I can ping through to the other side when logged in as admin from the diagnostic tool.

the problem has to be in the firewall area.

Thanx for your help.

Will buy coffee!
