      Hello,

      I need to setup a VPN between my PFsense 2 and a client network that use Cisco VPN.

      They gave me these info:

      Host=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
      GroupName=****
      Group Password: ****
      Username: ****
      Password: ****

      and also sent me a .pcf file to use eventually with a vpn client. I would like to be able to route all my local lan to the remote lan. Thanks.

        There isn't a way to connect to such a network using pfSense as a client.

        Not yet anyhow… that would require support for acting as an xauth client, which doesn't yet exist.

            I've done something similar with Linux + vpnc + iptables.

            It worked, but it was more of a hack to get temporary connectivity to another LAN.

              Yeah….me too before I replaced my Linux with shorewall/iptabes and vpnc! I'll let just one win box with the proper client to connect to the remote net for now! Thx.

                Cisco makes a hardware VPN client, the 3002 just for this purpose.  I think it is discontinued, but still works well for connecting a group of people as a classic Cisco IPSEC client.
