What implementation of IPsec does the Junxion Box use?

The Junxion Box VPN deploys the Openswan implementation of IPsec for Linux.

Can I establish a VPN tunnel between two Junxion Boxes?

Yes.

How can I ensure the best possible VPN connection?

The best VPN connections are ones that are made with full bars of cellular service on 3G network cards. Having the best service coverage and fastest possible cellular modem card will ensure a more stable VPN connection.

Cellular networks may also have more latent connections compared to regular land lines. To help account for this, it may be necessary to adjust the amount of time the tunnel connection is left open on the VPN server side or make adjustments to the WAN Alive interval.

Will VPN work with a dynamic IP address?

Yes, but it will have to be accounted for on the VPN server side. This can be accomplished in one of the follwing ways:

Can my computer's VPN client connect through the Junxion Box?

Yes and no. If you are using the Junxion Box to provide VPN access to other devices on the LAN, a secure VPN connection can only exist between the Junxion Box and the remote VPN server. Your computer's VPN client software will not be able to establish a VPN tunnel of it's own through a Junxion Box with VPN enabled.

If you are not using the Junxion Box for VPN services, your computer's VPN client software may be able to establish a VPN tunnel through the Junxion Box to a remote server under one of the following conditions:

Can I use a non-standard time server on the VPN server side?

Yes, you can use a non-standard time server on the VPN server side. Make sure your time server is reflected on the Junxion Box side by setting the NTP Server field in the VPN section of the Device Manager.

Why am I having trouble establishing a VPN tunnel?

If you are having trouble establishing a VPN tunnel with the Junxion Box, here are some troubleshooting tips to try:

  • Verify that you can ping the Junxion Box and connect to the Device Manager when the VPN is not set up.

Does the Junxion Box support non-Cisco VPNs?

The Junxion Box currently supports integration with Cisco VPN servers. The Junxion Box can integrate with other VPN servers which use similar protocols. Junxion support will work with you to determine a viable solution.

Do you have any default VPN settings?

Currently, we do not have any default VPN settings. There are many individual ways to integrate a Junxion Box into your VPN. We recommend contacting support if you have any questions or run into problems with your configuration. Be prepared to give as many details as possible.
