Hello everybody,
We use OpenVPN for connecting our offices and also individual PC (roadwarriors) A service provider now needs to have a VPN into our network for monitoring and maintenance. They would like to use IPSec and I can’t figure out if I can run both services at the same time or if they will create a conflict. Searching for an answer led to multiple result none really saying “yes” or “no” if IPfire can handle both and if that is good practice or not.
I use both, only roadwarrior, but my network has only one user. I had for a while my laptop connected to the router with IPSec and my phone with OpenVPN and I never noticed any problem.
I’ve run both at the same time and it seems to work A-OK. This was done mostly during testing of IPSec. The OpenVPN was already setup and running A-OK and I was experimenting with IPSec. Got it all working while running both OpenVPN and IPsec on the IPFire box! There were no special steps. I just followed the Wiki.
