StrideLinx Industrial grade VPN routers are often used by vendors to support IoT equipment remotely. Typically the VPN router’s WAN port is connected on the LAN side of an adam:ONE® site.
Our managed environments have a default quarantine policy called Holding Tank which will prevent the VPN router from phoning home. The following are the steps required to provide the functionality required:
- At the adam:ONE® site log into dashboard.adamnet.works and navigate to Rules → New Rule (list) → type Allowlist (Whitelist) called StrideLinx VPN Router domains and include the following domains (be sure to leave the default to include subdomains:
ayayot.com
ixon.net
ixon.cloud - Create a new Policy of type Allowlist (Whitelist) called VPN Router Policy and turn off all rules but turn on StrideLinx VPN Router domains
- Under Devices move the StrideLinx device from the Holding Tank Policy to the VPN Router Policy
StrideLinx VPN connections can now connect.
