P7.7 How to configure the VPN settings?

By now, only the firmware version from 2.13.0.87 to the other latest updated versions of MyPBX Standard and Pro can support VPN feature. But all the firmware versions of MyPBX Enterprise can support VPN feature.

The steps of configuring VPN settings are as below:

Step 1: In the Web Configuration Panel, select “Network Settings”->”VPN Settings”, and check “Enable VPN” option.

Step 2: Click “scan”, select the correct VPN configuration packet and click “import”.

Step 3: Reboot MyPBX.

Step 4: After rebooting, please select “Reports”->”System Info” to check if the VPN has been successfully connected. Once successfully enabled, the screen would show the status as “connected” with other information such as IP address.

Note: the VPN configuration packet should be in “*.rar”format.

1)            The packet should include all the keys and certificates of the VPN server and client, and the configuration files of the clients. All the information is supposed to be offered by VPN service provider. ( The name of the *.rar file can only be composed of number, letter, “-”and “.” )

2)            Because MyPBX is based upon UC Linux, all the VPN client configuration files should be in “*.conf” format (The Windows OS is using “*.ovpn”format. )

3) Please do not enable “user” and “group” in the client configuration files, or VPN could not be enabled successfully on MyPBX. Please configure as Figure 7-1:

4) If your VPN cannot work well on MyPBX, please make sure if it can work normally on your windows ( Win2000/XP/Vista/7 ) or MAC OS. ( Please note that if the VPN is running under Window 7 OS, it is required to use the mode that is compatible with Window XP OS and run as the administrator. )
