Could you please add the option to use profile(s) for the Nortel VPN Add-on, similar to the Cisco & Microsoft VPN Add-ons?
The Nortel VPN profile(s) are stored in filename: Baynet.tbk
Located in the same directory as the Nvc.exe or Extranet.exe files.
Sample:
[Lab1]
Description=Lab1
Dialup=(None)
Username=jsmith
UseTokens=0
TokenType=0
UsePAPGroup=0
GroupName=
SavePassword=0
Server=10.10.10.10
primaryDNS=
secondaryDNS=
primaryWINS=
secondaryWINS=
domainName=
DisableKeepalive=1
EnableSilentKeepalive=0
[Lab2]
Description=Lab2
Dialup=(None)
Username=jsmith
UseTokens=0
TokenType=0
UsePAPGroup=0
GroupName=
SavePassword=0
Server=10.10.10.11
primaryDNS=
secondaryDNS=
primaryWINS=
secondaryWINS=
domainName=
DisableKeepalive=1
EnableSilentKeepalive=0

Hi,
Thank you very much for these information. We will certainly add this. André does most of the add-on and he is in vacation but I will forward him this post.

Hi,
I downloaded the latest version of the Nortel VPN (10.04.109) and the file Baynet.tbk doesn't exist.
It's a file named NvcProfiles_U.dat that contains the profiles and it's located in the user's application data.
I also see that to use a profile the parameter is -UserProfile instead of -Profile.
Are you aware of that and what should I do please ?
Regards
André Sanscartier
We use Nortel VPN (V06_01.014) available here for your convenience:

The command line parameter is:
C:\Program Files\Nortel Networks\Extranet.exe -a "profile name"
Cheers,

André have updated the add-on. You must use the latest beta version. Let me know if this works
David Hervieux
Hi,
Would you test this new version for me please. I don't have the necessary setting to do so. It should work well with Extranet.exe now.
Thanks!

It works for 'Profile A', but not 'Profile B' see examples below. When I use 'Profile B' I get the Password field, not the PIN & Token fields. It’s probably related to the 'UseTokens' line, if =0 then no token key is required, if =1 then a token key is required.
[Profile A]
Description=
Dialup=(None)
Username=thfs
UseTokens=0
TokenType=0
UsePAPGroup=0
GroupName=
SavePassword=0
Server=10.10.10.10
primaryDNS=
secondaryDNS=
primaryWINS=
secondaryWINS=
domainName=
DisableKeepalive=1
EnableSilentKeepalive=0
[Profile B]
Description=
Dialup=(None)
Username=thfs
UseTokens=1
TokenType=2
UsePAPGroup=0
GroupName=RSA
SavePassword=0
Server=10.10.10.11
primaryDNS=
secondaryDNS=
primaryWINS=
secondaryWINS=
domainName=
DisableKeepalive=0
EnableSilentKeepalive=0
Suggestions:
In my opinion, the 'Application' menu should be at the top and then the 'Profile' menu next.
If Extranet is selected, the 'Profile' menu should search for a Baynet.tbk file.
If Nvc (default) is selected, the 'Profile' menu should search for a Profiles.dat file.
If a profile is selected, all fields should have the values populated by the profile file but greyed out.

Hi,
André will take a look at it Monday. Thank you
David Hervieux
Any updates?
Hi,
If I remember correctly the add-on was updated. What version of the add-on do you have?
David Hervieux
I have Nortel VPN Add-on version 1.2.0.0
My profiles no longer appear in the 'Profile' pull-down menu? Only 'Session settings' appears.
FYI, I confirmed the 'Installation Path' under 'Options' was correct.
FYI, I have the following selected 'Application: Extranet'
Could you also please consider the following suggestions, I made earlier:
In my opinion, the 'Application' menu should be at the top and then the 'Profile' menu next.
If Extranet is selected, the 'Profile' menu should search for a Baynet.tbk file.
If Nvc (default) is selected, the 'Profile' menu should search for a Profiles.dat file.
If a profile is selected, all fields should have the values populated by the profile file but greyed out.

Hi,
Could you try this DLL please ?
Everything should be OK now.

NortelVPNAddOn[1].zip
Excellent, it works. Could you please now update the NortelVPNAddOn.dll file on the Add-ons webpage, it lists 1.3.0.0 but it's actually 1.2.1.0?
Cheers,
thfs
Hi,
In fact the latest version is 1.3.0.0 (as the last dll I sent you)

Hi,
The file NortelVPN.1.3.0.0.zip as been fixed on our website. It now contains the good version.
Thanks
André
