Alex,
The issue doesn't appear to be feature bug, but rather a config problem;
however, it seems that there's a quick fix for it:
add multiple IP addresses to ISA's VPN interface, and ask users from the
same site to connect to separate IP's. Resource permitting, setup a test
ISA/VPN and try to reproduce the setup, and start logging the vpn
connectivity without other production network garbage/noise.
HTH,
Julian

There is no problem with only one client behind a NAT-Device, but with
more than one clients!!
Any suggestions how to get it to work with more than one client at the
same time?

NAT Traversal
There are a number of problems with using IPsec over NAT devices. A NAT
device changes packet information during the address translation process.
The process can either fail because information needed by the NAT device
for address translation is encrypted, or the address translation process
can cause the packet to be considered invalid by IPsec. NAT traversal
(NAT-T) overcomes these issues to allow IPsec peers behind NAT devices to
detect the presence of NAT devices, negotiate IPsec security associations
(SAs), and send ESP-protected data, despite the fact that the addresses
in the IPsec-protected packets are changed by NAT. For more information,
see IPsec NAT Traversal Overview.
To allow ISA Server 2004 and ISA Server 2000 to pass IPsec traffic to a
VPN server behind the ISA Server computer, the following is required:
. The VPN server must be running Microsoft Windows ServerT 2003.
. The L2TP over IPsec VPN protocol must be used.
. All VPN clients must be using the IPsec NAT-T VPN client.
Note An IPsec NAT-T client update is available, with improvements to
IPsec to better support VPN clients behind NAT devices. For computers
running Microsoft Windows® XP Service Pack 1 (SP1) and Windows 2000, a
download is available from article 818043, "L2TP/IPSec NAT-T update for
Windows XP and Windows 2000," in the Microsoft Knowledge Base. By
default, Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) no longer supports establishing
IPsec NAT-T connections to servers that are located behind NAT computers.
For more information, see article 885407, "The default behavior of IPSec
NAT traversal (NAT-T) is changed in Windows XP SP2, in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base."

Hello,
we implemented a VPN solution which uses the L2TP/IPSEC protocoll. The
ISA Server (ISA 2006 W2K3) is directly attached to the Internet (without
NAT). Clients use the VPN without problems, even over a NAT Device.
But if there are multiple clients (XP SP2) behind the same NAT-Device
(client side) the second client gets no connection. We also tried
different DSL-Routers with features like IPSEC-Passthrough. But there is
no different behaviour if this feature is turned off or not. (I think
this feature is only usefull for Clients that could not use the NAT-T
protocol).
Is there a known restriction in the IPSec NAT-T protocoll, which would
explain that only one connection is possible over the same NAT device???
A.
