Hello; There are no SSL packets when I am capturing packets during the event of connecting to vpn using vpn client. Is this obvious? I am not sure if it is. What i did is - With active internet connection only (no browser open doing nothing), I started wireshark capture. Then I connect to (my school) vpn using vpn client and then I stopped wireshark capture. I could see no SSL packets. Whats the reason for that? asked 11 Apr '13, 20:55  CDK |
One Answer:
There are different kinds of VPN. SSL-VPN being one of them, but IPsec based VPN's are still around much. What kind of VPN client are you using? What kind of packets do you see when connected with VPN? If you see a couple of ISAKMP packets followed by a lot of ESP packets, then your client uses IPsec. answered 11 Apr '13, 23:01  SYN-bit ♦♦ |
