Hi Peter,

Their encryption domain must be set up using the 172.20 address block. You only use the 80.x address to establish the VPN. After the VPN is up, that address does not exist as far as the site-to-site VPN traffic is concerned.

You usually do not want any kind of NAT going on in the VPN tunnel itself. You just need to make sure that their internal IP range is different than yours and that your default internal network route ends up at the internal interface of FW-1. If you do a "tracert 172.20.whatever" from your computer and it ends up at FW-1, you should be OK. You may need to check all of your subnets to assure their default route is the same.

FW-1 will take care of the routing for you.

HTH,

Ray

Hi

Can someone please tell me if i was was to setup a vpn between an external site and our Checkpoint NG AI and the exteranl site was using an internal address range of 172.20..x.x, and their firewall gateway was 80.x.x.x., could i use the gateway 80.x.x.x address for the encryption doamin for the external site? therefoe same IP for gateway and topoloy. Would this work? would i need any nat rules ?

  Or does if specifically need to be an address that is routable?

  Hoping to do this using the simpified mode

  Thanks for your help guys
