      Hi Guys,

      I thought I'd put this in general questions as it is for both IPsec and OpenVPN and I didn't want to restrict it to one board, please move if you feel its in the wrong location.

      OK so the issue I am facing is I have 2 firewalls, one on site and one at a local data centre, they are linked with an OpenVPN tunnel. I have a requirement for a 3rd party company to access both the networks on each of these routers. For annoying reasons they will only open one VPN connection to one of the firewalls using IPsec, so they connect to our local firewall.

      They can access the local firewall network just fine. However they cannot access the network at the data centre, and machines at the data centre cannot access their network either.

      The setup I have is:

      OpenVPN local router -
      Tunnel network 10.254.248.0/30
      Remote network 10.132.16.0/24

      OpenVPN DC Router -
      Tunnel network 10.254.248.0/30
      Remote network 10.132.8.0/21, 10.68.42.192/26

      IPsec Local Router -
      Phase 2
      Local Network 10.132.8.0/21
      Remote network 10.68.42.192/26

      Do I need an additional phase 2 entry on my local router? If so, would the local network be 10.132.16.0/24 and would the existing OpenVPN tunnel route that to the DC network? Or am I on the wrong track and I need to do something else entirely?

      Thanks in advance for any help!
