IPSec VPN setup between peplink 310 & checkpoint 620

Product Discussion Peplink Balance
1

Hello to all,

i’m trying to setup an IPSec tunnel from a PepLink 310 to Checkpoint 620 firewall.

I’m testing this combination in the lab, so the topology of the both sides are not relevant. Anyway, i can’t connect the tunnel.

Maybe anybody have experience with this hardware combination? how i need setup the hardware on both sides?

thanks for the help,

Hi,

Have you try to establish IPsec VPN between 2 Peplink devices? Fyi, we support Cisco and Juniper officially.

Can you share the settings in screen shot for B310 and CheckPoint?

We Setup a Checkpoint Firewall onsite which was behind a Balance 310 talking to a Checkpoint at the data centre. (Checkpoint - Checkpoint via the Balance 310)
Didn’t use VPN as found it to be a very inefficient way of doing it.
We did have to forward about 20 ports for the Checkpoints to communicate with each other though!

Hi,

In in order to get a full benefit of the Peplink devices you can do the following. Have the checkpoint devices behind the Peplink devices from each site.Create a Speedfusion between the two peplinks so you will benefit from the troughput of multiple connections and high availability and create your site to site VPN tunnel between the checkpoint devices. This is a tested scenario with no issues.

If if you have on one site a Peplink and on the other site a Checkpoint device follow the documentation on the Checkpoint support site for site to site between checkpoint and Cisco. The configurations are the same.

Let us us know how it goes.

Thanks,
