Hello guys,
I am trying to integrate Checkpoint VPN with the VIP service for authentication. However I am having some problems.
Checkpoint gateway and the VIP gateway are directly connected in the same network.
On the Checkpoint gateway I defined a user that should use a RADIUS server as authentication method. I created a "User ID - LDAP Password - Security Code" type Validation Server within the VIP management console running on port 1645. I initiate VPN connection and Checkpoint gives me error "RADIUS servers not responding". Using tcpdump I can see that authentication request packets are sent from the Checkpoint gateway. The log of the VPN module gives " RADIUS Servers Cannot Be Reached. Dropping Reques" message.
I have verified the preshared key for the RADIUS communication. Using some RADUIS testing tool, I verified that the server is responding to authentication request messages. So can anyone give me a tip on what is wrong in this setup?
Thanks!
