On my old USGs I could select the vpn tunnel as the next hop. On the flex 100 h I have no option under the policy routes. I created to site to site vpn tunnel, but no option. Is there something new that I don't know or understand?

Thanks for the help!!

    We like to upgrade our other old firewalls and now need policy routing. Is there a publication date of the new fimrware version?

    Any information about the future availability of the feature ? Because it is still not available.

    Hi all,

    The latest firmware supports the Next hop to the VTI interface for route-based VPN. The next hop to a VPN tunnel, which is a policy-based VPN, is in our roadmap. If we have any ETA, I will update this post.

    1 year and still no change. It was already promised for May and October, but unfortunately nothing. Is there any new information here? What tells the roadmap?

    Hi @weite,

    I apologize for the delayed reply.

    May I know why you still need the "next hop to a VPN tunnel" even though the latest firmware supports "the Next hop to the VTI interface for route-based VPN"?

    Could you share your topology and scenario so we can help check if it can be built using a route-based VPN and the Next hop to the VTI interface?

    Ok, tell me how can I add a VTI?
    I see the VTI under interface → network → advanced settings but there is no add button. Is there a other way to add them? I'm confused.

    The setup for VTI vs how H models do to non H are different but here is a short setup

    VPN client IKEv2 192.168.144.0/24 > Zywall 110 > VTI 192.168.138.13/28 > FLEX200H VTI 192.168.138.12/28 > LAN 192.168.138.1/28 to 192.168.138.2 DNS server

    On FLEX200H you go to VPN > IPSec VPN > add

    IKEv1 with custom select Route-Based
    VTI Setting
    Local IP 192.168.138.12
    Subnet Mask 255.255.255.240

    Route Setting add 192.168.144.0/24 this will add a static route for any IP for that subnet to go down the subnet.
