Sonicwall VPN Issue

Hello all,

I have a Sonicwall 4060 that is giving me fits. Our VPN has been
working fine, however we made some changes to the network which
required us to change the IP address of the LAN interface.
Also, we went from a switched flat network to a routed network.

At any rate, since we made the change, the VPN clients have not been
able to enter the LAN from the WAN or the DMZ. They seem to get the
correct internal IP address, however they don't receive a "default
Gateway" address.

I added the IP helper address of the DHCP server, but it didn't seem to
make a difference.

DHCP works fine on the LAN, but as soon as it hits the sonicwall it
drops the gateway address.

Any clues to this bizarre behavior?

Thanks

Rod
