Connection Failure from another company network
Posted: Fri Sep 25, 2020 8:12 am
Hi All.
I have 20 users connecting from home no issue with softether.
I have no ports open as softether nat traversal works fine.
I now have a requirement to connect 2 contractors but they are getting the error code 1 issue.
I tried the same certs and it connects 100% repeatedly.
Im assuming they are in another company network and may have something thats blocking the VPN.
Here are a few questions that you may be able to help me with to investigate this. (Please reply if Im missing something or if im incorrect)
What ports need to be open from client end ? All I see online is the server or router ports to open.
Is there a ping test or something that can be done ?
Would it help to check if the connection worked from outside their network ?
Any AV or firewall issues that may trigger the error code 1 ?
