I'm with Victor disable split tunneling. I used to have connectivity issues
using Juniper network connect vpn with no split-tunneling. Very poor
implementation. Certain drivers used by the clients was causing repeated
connection resets and disaster seemed imminent during rollout. Juniper was
not forthcoming on this issue. Only after compiling a list of all the
drivers/apps that cause this was I able to settle down the problem. If you
are interested I can share my list of apps/processes.

We don't use xp firewalling. Instead we use the ISS IDS client on all
machines. Nice product, lots of control/forensics.

We have two pix (actually three, one failover) 520s that I'm trying to
setup multiple tunnels. The two office locations have a tunnel up
between them with 2 peer address on the main end and a single on the
other. We have need to establish other tunnels at various times to
clients. I can't seem to get a second tunnel up without adding it to the
existing named tunnel config as a third peer and even then it tends to
flap our tunnel between the offices. Is there some way to accomplish
this scenario without causing our tunnel problems?

I have split tunnelling disabled, but being frank my low level
knowledge of TCP/IP isn't sufficient to know if it's sufficient
mitigation for lack of a software firewall.

Frustratingly, the Juniper Host Checker comes with a firewall but you
need admin rights simply to enable/disable that component.

Cheers,
Paul

Hello John

You need to make sure that the dynamic crypto map entry is higher than the
static crypto map(s).

Please have a look at the below link:

Yes. I'm betting that the problem is in the way you have the
crypto-map match access-lists configured. Seeing the config would be
helpful to diagnosing the issue.

You may also have a problem with the actual version of PIX OS you're
running. Also, at this point, since the 520's are so old that their
replacement model (525) has been end-of-life for 2 years, replacing
them is pretty much imminent. And since the ASA's have all new VPN
code (based on the VPN3K), mesh and hub & spoke VPN tunnels work a lot
better.
