How to Block all Remote Access from outside | Only allow a few IP-Public of device

[Mk_83]

Hello everyone,

Is it possible to block *any source to access/create a site in Remote Access VPN? I'm only wanting to allow some source/device from outside (src: IP-Public) can remote access.

I'm create a stealth rule, block all source access to external ip of Gateway:

now from my computer I can't ping/ssh to gateway, but still access webUI (443) and remote access to Gateway successfully.

Is there other rule that I miss? Please help me.

Purpose: only allow some devices to connect to remote access vpn (whitelist using IP-Public of device)

Thank you so much and have a great day!

Best regards,

Kha

I'm curious about this too. You can specify this on a country basis on one of other firewall vendor. For example, you can tell me to only connect via VPN from China.

I think it is related Implied Rules

There are two elements of Implied Rules here:

• Creating the site that's HTTPS to port 443, allowed via Implied Rules. You can make them "before last" (and control with regular rules) with: https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk105740 
• The actual VPN connection (starts with IKE on UDP 500). Short of hacking .def files, this is probably the easiest solution to implement: https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Security-Gateways/Block-VPN-Traffic-by-Country/m-p/172695#M31396

Hello PhoneBoy,

I'm follow the sk105740: set according to the Firewall policy (SmartConsole > Platform Portal > Accessibility > Edit), now I can control access WebUI on port 443 with Access Rule.

But for the Remote Access VPN, it didn't affect, I tried with rule: block *any source to external IP -> still remote access successfully.

For The actual VPN connection (starts with IKE on UDP 500). Short of hacking .def files: I didn't find any sk, document related, can you explain more about it, please?

Thanks & Best regards,

Kha

I had copy/pasted the wrong link above.
Should be: https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Security-Gateways/Block-VPN-Traffic-by-Country/m-p/172695#M31396
Now fixed in the original post also.

Three ways to achive this:

- Why not define RA VPN using certificates only ?

- use IA Roles in Access Rule so only a few can connect to the network

- use Legacy SecuRemote client without Office Mode that needs the source IP used in the rule base
