You can only ping the internal int on the pix if you are sitting on the inside. You would also need to issue the command "telnet x.x.x.x inside".
You can never cross an interface to get to another interface on a pix for the purpose of ping or telnet. You must always use the interface closest to you. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 09, 2003 3:02 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: ping the PIX inside from an external interface [7:72052] Can someone help me ?! I do playing around with different configurations trying to successful ping the internal interface -172.16.200.1 - of a PIX from an external Router interface. ip address outside 192.168.100.2 255.255.255.248 ip address inside 172.16.200.1 255.255.255.0 After a lot of trails I don't think that this is possible - right ?
