In order to connect to a VPN from a VPN client that's connected to the TG862, VPN traffic will need to be allowed to pass through the TG862 in order to establish the VPN connection. By default, VPN passthrough is enabled. This document describes how to allow IPsec VPN, PPTP VPN, or L2TP VPN traffic to pass through the TG862 to a VPN client.
