User Unable to Connect to the VPN Gateway through the Net
Direct Client
Start by verifying on your own PC that Net Direct works towards the same VPN Gateway as
the end-user's device.
Then check the following in the specified order:
1. Is the user logged in to the Portal? Check in the CLI.
You can choose to limit the output of logged in users to a particular VPN by providing
the VPN number as a modifier to the
users
command. To limit the output further,
you can also provide one or more initial letters of a user name, directly followed by
an asterisk (*).
>> Information#
users 1 s*
If the user is not logged in, make sure the user can log into the Portal at all. See
A
User Fails to Connect to the VPN
on page 144.
2. Is Net Direct enabled and configured correctly?
See the "Net Direct" chapter in the
Avaya Application Guide for VPN
for instructions
on how to enable Net Direct and how to configure an IP pool.
3. Is the Net Direct link visible to the end-user on the Portal's Home tab?
If not, the user may belong to a group that does not have access to the linkset where
the Net Direct link is included. See the "Net Direct" chapter in the
Avaya Application
Guide for VPN
for instructions on how to configure a Net Direct link and map the
linkset to the desired group.
4. For Windows, is the Net Direct ActiveX control present on the end-user's PC?
Let the end-user check the following: In Internet Explorer, on the
Tools
menu, select
Internet options
. On the
General
tab, under
Temporary Internet Files
, click
Settings
. Click
View objects
. Verify that the Net Direct control is installed and that
the version corresponds to the VPN Gateway 's version.
If the ActiveX control cannot be started, Net Direct tries to start the Java applet
instead.
For Linux and Mac (and Windows), is the Java applet window displayed properly?
If an X is displayed in the Java applet window, check the Java Console Window
(select
Java Console
on the
Tools
menu).
5. Let the end-user log into the Portal again.
6. Make sure that the end-user allows ActiveX controls and scripting of ActiveX
controls (Windows only).
