>Does anybody know how can I set Avast AV not to block when I am connecting VPN to a customer? All Cisco systems VPN work. But a Windows VPN does not work with Avast active. So I have to shutdown Avast for 10 min or an hour when connecting. I would prefer to be protected even when I am connected.
I don't know the specifics of Avast, but if it has a firewall function that replaces Windows Firewall, you may have to create a rule that allows the Windows VPN function (most likely an application-level rule rather than opening port(s)).
Googling [avast blocking vpn] brings up some useful-looking results.
