What is the best way to setup a site to site tunnel between an NG AI R55 box
and an Edge X appliance?

Some key points about the R55 box:
- Running on SecurePlatform
- Head office
- Static NAT configuration (10.1.1.x)
- All public addresses are static
- version R55 HFA 04

Some key points about the Edge appliance:
- Self managed (not managed by the R55 box)
- Remote office
- NAT configuration (192.168.20.x)
- DHCP external but always receives the same IP
- version 4.0.93x

So far I have tried many combinations without success.

Example1:
- created an externally managed "VPN-1 Edge" object
- the Edge VPN-domain topology set as "this gateway"
- attached to a Star communitity
- the policy always fails if a rule references anything to do with VPN???

Example2:
- created an externally managed "Checkpoint Gateway" object
- tunnel connects allowing the Edge to access 10.1.1.x addresses based on
R55 policy
- any attempt to access any Edge address (192.168.20.x) fails with an error
regarding "unknown peer"

I have also tried remote access configurations but could never get a valid
policy to work.

Perhaps I have missed something completely. We had this problem with FP3
before we upgraded and we still have it with R55.

Any ideas or suggestions are welcome!!
