Racoon Roadwarrior Configuration
Roadwarrior is a client that uses unknown, dynamically assigned IP addresses to connect to a VPN gateway (in this case also firewall). This situation is shown on picture 1.1 and is one of the most interesting and today most needed scenarios in business environment. Here are some of the reasons why that is so:
* Client can be any computer (with any IP address assigned) that has Internet access and can initiate connection to VPN gateway.
* When connecting to VPN network, client is assigned an internal IP address on the network he is connecting to, which gives an impression that it is directly connected to VPN network, instead of connecting by tunneling through Internet.
* When internal IP address is assigned, network administration is easier.
* Traffic is protected on the route from the client to the VPN gateway.
* When connected, client doesn't have direct access to Internet because traffic is routed through VPN network and firewall (VPN gateway).
