Head Office to Branches VPN tunnels with URL Filtering

Hi all,

I have a setup where around 20 branches need to connect to Head office to access servers etc.

I was going to set up a Peplink 580 in head office and a Peplink 210 in each branch.

My concern is this. We need URL Filtering for this setup. I don’t want to use Peplink’s URL filtering service since this does not have any HTTPS inspection etc. For this I was going to deploy a firewall behind the Peplinks. My concern is, how can I redirect traffic coming from branches through Head Office Firewall in order to perform URL filtering on the Head Office firewall? Is it possible to create a default route on the Peplink through the LAN?

Thanks
Darryl.

This can be done with a 0.0.0.0/0 LAN static route in the head office Balance pointing to the firewall on the inside. The 0.0.0.0/0 static route will only apply to SpeedFusion peers, not LAN clients inside the Balance 580.

The branch office routers need to send all traffic through the VPN.
