Hello,

I have the following setup up with Checkpoint FW-1:

Internet------10.x.x.x--FW--10.x.x.x----- Internal network
                                |
                                |
                                |
                        20.20.20.20 (DMZ)

Pease note:
- the external FW-interface has a private IP-address (10.x.x.x).
- the DMZ FW-interface has a public IP-address (20.20.20.20 as an example)

I would like to setup a VPN on the FW, to which a remote client can connect via the Internet, using SecureClient. According to Checkpoint documentation the VPN should bind to the FW-external interface. This is the problem, my FW-external interface has a private IP-address, which is not routable via the Internet. In order to make this working I would like the VPN to bind to the DMZ-interface (20.20.20.20) instead of the external interface.

Has anyone setup such a VPN and does it work or do you have any suggestions?

Thanks for your help.
