Well, you asked for a step by step link to setup a VPN on a Pix 520. My normal route is that, I use www.cisco.com, and look at the Pix documentation. How else does anyone else do anything? Read the manual. This goes for anything, even non-Cisco stuff.
www.cisco.com technical documents 2nd column now, 3rd row, Cisco Pix select OS version read docs, including the nice handy link that says "site to site vpn" among other things. Anyway, after taking a 30 seconds to figure that one out, here is the link. http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/iaabu/pix/pix_61/config/index.htm I strongly suggest you get used to their web site. It is daunting at first but is very powerful. Definitely worth learning in the long run. Or, you can do it the "easy" way. www.cisco.com type in the search box pix vpn I see a lot of pertinent hits. Advantage of the first technique, practice for the lab's documentation cd. Advantage of the second hit, it's just out right easier, but I doubt there is a search engine and all of the other white papers that cisco has available. Use it as a crutch, and you will be forever handicappped. Now, you may think Brad is being "cruel", however, I think he is doing you a favor. I probably did you a disservice here. If you cannot figure out how to navigate the cisco web site, taking the CCIE Lab is just a few orders of magnitude harder. Why? You cannot use the documentation effectively at all if you cannot navigate cisco's technical documents web page. Therefore you must memorize a lot more and practice a heck of a lot more on silly details. I know people go on about "never use the docs, you will fail. you will run out of time" Hog wash. If it takes me 5 seconds to look up something on the docs, that is less info for me to memorize. I guess your mileage may vary. I know the "use aliases, or you will fail" is hog wash for me in particular. I type fast and the commands are logical. So, if you feel learning their web page is a hopeless endeavor, so why bother and just memorize and work it out the hard way, go ahead. Everyone has a different way of tackling a problem. If you were just looking for some quick simple answers, the thing is, the best we can do is lead you to the general area. I have no idea on what kind of VPN you want to setup, what peers you want to use, versions of code, etc. So please, do a bit more work so we can get a more specific question, so then we can assist you better. Otherwise, you can get a refund for this service. Anyway, Happy Thanksgiving!
