Watchguard MUVPN not working due to Mcafee firewall

I hate personal firewall products but none so much as I hate mcafee. I was testing a MUVPN and the tunnell just wouldn’t established. I turned that thing into swiss cheese, it shouldn’t have been blocking anything but the VPN tunnel STILL wouldn’t come up until I actually turned off the service. Gah it’s frustrating.

I had the same problem. Not sure if you’ve resolved this, but in my case, I had to add the external IP address of my firewall and also the IP range of my remote network into the NETWORKS page of the McAfee firewall.
