VPN On Demand Issue

Post by pelowj » Thu Mar 07, 2013 9:37 am

Hi all,

Sorry if this has been posted already, I've had a good look around but can't find anything about it.

I have VPN on demand working to connect us to certain services on our LAN when outside the office. All the internal addresses are in the format *.lan which I have set as an "Establish When Needed" item.

When I open safari to load one of these servers, http://server.lan for example, the VPN connects successfully and I get the little VPN icon. The instant the icon appears, I'm told that the server cannot be found. If I then hit reload, the page loads fine.

Anyone else experiencing this issue? Any quick fix?

Beirigí bua,
JP

in my experience this means the vpn wasn't established and connection failed

try creating the VoD profile following this post instructions

iPCU 3.6 OpenVPN profile doesn't work. you need a CustomSSL VPN profile

The VPN is definitely establishing — if I tap retry the page on the internal sever loads.
