Currently there is a site to site VPN setup between a PIX 515 and a 506e. When i try to connect using the Cisco VPN Client over the internet to the 515 i cannot access the remote network on the other side of the already established site to site vpn to the network on the remote side of the 506.

vpnclient -> pix515 --> over site to site vpn tunnel -->pix 506

Interesting enough when at location at the 515 lan side i can access the 506 lan side over the site to site fine. Anyone else have problems with this?

Well I think this is where the fact that the pix cannot route comes into play..

Any data coming into an interface cannot leave the same interface..

I can't think of/don't know a work around

thats a interesting point but it should be able to be done no?

Client VPN at home connects to 515 PIX
515 already has a site to site VPN setup to 506


Client wants to access network resources over the VPN tunnel at remote site.

This cant be done?
Funny however that i can terminal to a machine in the 515 lan network and then from there i can terminal to the 506 lan network over the VPN tunnel

Can anyone help?
 
Because, its just what i said, the pix cannot route traffic from the same interface.

when you're vpn'ing into the 515, your going in the outside interface.. the lan 2 lan tunnel terminates on the outside interfaces from both sides..

Hence what I said, the ipsec connections never go past the outside interface.

you can get to it from the inside interface because the traffic is not being routed in and out the outside interface.
