Secure Remote VPN office mode IP allocation issue
Thread: Secure Remote VPN office mode IP allocation issueThread tools.
Search Thread
 Hi Friends, i am having a strange issue with secure remote .i am running power-1 R75.20 . i am able to connect to the VPN successfully but when i do the ipconfig on client PC i do see that some private IP gets assigned to Checkpoint Adapter .That ip does not belongs to the pool that i have configured on members .Now the question is how that IP getting assign to the VPN adapter and also ipassignment.conf is empty. Second issue is when i connect the VPN from laptop that runs on data card then after connecting the VPN it could not reach the internal IP .But when i do the same exercise on a computer that is local to external IP of firewall then i can reach the internal IP. but tracker log shows the source IP as the public IP(Actual IP of PC) not the ip that gets assigned to VPn adapter . i do have office mode enabled .Please help .... Regards Harshpal

 https://training-certifications.checkpoint.com/#/courses/Check%20Point%20Certified%20Expert%20(CCSE)%20R80.x Office Mode IP Address Lease DurationWhen a remote user's machine is assigned an Office mode IP address, that machine can use it for a certain amount of time. This time period is called the "IP address lease duration." The remote client automatically asks for a lease renewal after half of the IP lease duration period has elapsed. If the IP lease duration time is set to 60 minutes, a renewal request is sent after 30 minutes. If a renewal is given, the client will request a renewal again after 30 minutes. If the renewal fails, the client attempts again after half of the remaining time, for example, 15 minutes, then 7.5 minutes, and so on. If no renewal is given and the 60 minutes of the lease duration times out, the tunnel link terminates. To renew the connection the remote user must reconnect to the Security Gateway . Upon reconnection, an IKE renegotiation is initiated and a new tunnel created. When the IP address is allocated from a predefined IP pool on the Security Gateway , the Security Gateway determines the IP lease duration period. The default is 15 minutes. When using a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to users, the DHCP server's configuration determines the IP lease duration. When a user disconnects and reconnects to the Security Gateway within a short period of time, it is likely that the user will get the same IP address as before.  |

A few of our users have had an issue connecting to our VPN, they've been getting the "Office Mode IP Assignment failure - all IP address were allocated or the user is not authorized to receive an IP address from the gateway" error.
All of them got the message: Office Mode IP Assignment failure - all IP address were allocated or the user is not authorized. The firewall logs showed that they all managed to successfully authenticate but didn't get an IP adress.
we are assigning ip addresses to vpn users only via ipassignment.conf file. Also we have edited $FWDIR/conf/trac_client_1.ttm file according to our needs. And this configurations worked for us fine on R80.30 and we think that this settings should be okay with R81 also.
With this, you can remove the "legacy user access" rule for "Vpn_users@any" in the source column AND you can remove the RemoteAccess community from the VPN column. You will use the access roles to control VPN user traffic; either by your client type roles, or your user-identity roles, or both.
From the navigation tree, click VPN Clients > Office Mode. In the Office Mode Methodsection, click From the RADIUS server used to authenticate the user. Click OK and publish the changes. Use First Office Mode IP. To configure all gateways to work in Office Mode: From Menu, click Global Properties.
When using Hub mode, enable Office mode. If the remote client is using an IP address supplied by an ISP, this address might not be fully routable. When Office mode is used, rules can be created that relate directly to Office mode connections. Note - Office mode is not supported in SecuRemote.

Configure the settings for Office Mode (see the Remote Access VPN Administration Guide for your version > "Office Mode" chapter > "IP Pool Configuration" heading). Note - Office Mode support is mandatory on the Security Gateway / Cluster Two or more Security Gateways that work together in a redundant configuration - High Availability, or Load ...
Click Apply. The default setting for office mode is 172.16.10.0\24. To assign a VPN certificate: Click the downward arrow next to the VPN Remote Access certificate field. The list of uploaded certificates shows. Select the desired certificate. Note - You cannot select the default Web portal certificate. Click Apply.
