Hello everyone.

I´m having a big problem, but first i will try to explain a brief story about the problem.
Ok i´ve tried to establish a vpn tunnel using cisco vpn client to connect to a remote network.


Client --Router ---Internet --- PIX --- DMZServer

I´ve succesfull connect to the pix, using the vpn client, but i cannot ping the dmzserver.

My point is when i connect using a DIalup account from my ISP to connect to internet and then make the tunnel using the vpn client i can ping the dmzserver.
When i´m in the lan and connect to the pix using th vpn client i can´t ping the dmzserver.

Can anyone know how can i resolve this problem?

Thanks to all
 
The problem could be in the router. The router is obviously doing some sort of PATing. Secondly, is the router configured to allow IPSec traffic thru? What type of router is it?
 
If you're running PIX o/s 6.3(1) or above, add

isakmp nat-traversal

to your config, and your phase 2 ESP traffic will be tunnelled under UDP port 4500, and so nat through your router properly.

Alternatively the problem could be that the local ip address you're assigned to the vpn client when you connect is on the same range as the local address you use behind the router. For this reason it's often a good idea to not use the 192.168.1/24 range for the vpn client pool, as lots of SOHO routers which a single user will typically use at home default to this range.

Hello bell1996 and chicocouk thanks for answering my thread, but unfortunnaly my problem still´s happening, i cant apply anything to the firewall because i can administering it but have done 1 thing that make me check that the problem is on my side, in my router.
