I was using Forticlient SSL VPN on my computer running Windows 8 but I can't establish a connection, the client tried to the number of bytes sent into a higher value, but still I've receive 0 bytes. Is there any other way configure this?

Hallo Susan,

Here is a workaround that will help you fix that issue:

  • Go to the administrator cmd shell and type: net stop bfe
  • You may also need access the Services and from there you will manually disable and stop the: Windows Firewall and the IKE and Auth IPSec Keying Modules.
  • That will cause the Base Filtering Engine to shut down.

This is one thing that you should just quickly test for it will leave your machine vulnerable to malicious programs.

You should also ensure that these services are running when you have finished the testing. Also check any other service that might have been stopped by the "net stop bfe" command and start it. The services may include the following:

  • Base Filtering Engine.
  • IPSec Policy Agent.
  • Windows Firewall.
  • IKE and Auth IPSec Keying Modules.

Regards,

Carl
