Re: Setting routing to link 2 sites by VPN

This should mainly happen automatically. The only traffic using the tunnel would be traffic addressed to the private IPs of machines at the "other" site. http traffic would only use it if the http server was actually located at this site. Traffic addressed to any other IP address will still go out to the Internet unencrypted. Only the private traffic for the "other" site will be tunnelled (ir encrypted and encapsulated).

Alas the router in the initial stages is not able to support this,
so all the routing etc needs to be done via windows...until that is i get a 2nd line in with bigger and better cisco hardware

I'm looking to join 2 sites via a vpn, however the vpm link will not
be used for www traffic at the 2nd location.
The 2nd office will have it's own dedicated www link to keep traffic
to a minimum on the VPN.
Both sites are on seperate subnets.

E mail & RDP traffic will be sent / recieved over the vpn.
My question is what is the best way to seperate www traffic from vpn
site to site traffic, at the 2nd location

This should be easy enough to control at your router....I'd set up VPN between two compatible routers/firewalls and not involveWindows in it at all. My usual preference is Sonicwall appliances.
