Greetings,

It is possible to do this, and you'll need to NAT both sides of the
traffic.  Whatever you NAT the addresses behind, you will need to make sure
that the firewalls have a route for the address.  Basically what you'll
setup is a 10 to 10 NAT (Both directions NATed).  Check Point firewalls look
at the source, destination, and encryption domain to determine whether or
not a packet needs to be encrypted.

Hi,

I've have the following setup:
(notice that LAN A and LAN  B have the same network range)

HOST A 192.168.254.50
|
LAN A 192.168.254.0/24    (overlapping NAT range 192.168.249.0/24)
|
|
192.168.254.1(eth1)
ROUTER A
192.168.251.2 (eth2)
|
|
192.168.251.1(eth1)
Check Point FW R60  192.168.252.2 (eth3) ----- to internet router
192.168.252.1
192.168.254.1(eth2)
|
|
LAN B 192.168.254.1
|
HOST B 192.168.254.2      (static NAT to 192.168.250.2)

And the following NAT addresses:
overlapping NAT range for LAN A: 192.168.249.0/24
Static nat for a server on LAN B: 192.168.254.2 <-> 192.168.250.2

Hosts on LAN A need to setup a connection to hosts on LAN B. But as
you can see LAN A and LAN B have the same network ranges.

Using GuiDBedit I've modified the following parameters for eth1 on the
Check Point FW:
- enable_overlapping_nat -> TRUE
- overlap_nat_dst_ipaddr -> 192.168.254.0
- overlap_nat_netmask -> 255.255.255.0
- overlap_nat_source_ipaddr -> 192.168.249.0

+ a route for 192.168.249.0 to 192.168.251.2 (eth2 ROUTER A) on the
Check Point FW

This is based on a more-or-less similar setup in the R60 Firewall
guide (overlapping NAT section)

So if host 192.168.254.50 on LAN A want to setup a connection to
192.168.250.2 (static nat to host 192.168.254.2 on LAN B) the
following should happen on the Check Point FW:


eth1 - before NAT     src addr: 192.168.254.50      dst addr:
192.168.250.2
eth1 - after NAT        src addr: 192.168.249.50      dst addr:
192.168.249.2
packet leaves eth2 to 192.168.249.2

But what I see is:
eth1 - before NAT     src addr: 192.168.254.50      dst addr:
192.168.250.2
eth1 - after NAT        src addr: 192.168.249.50      dst addr:
192.168.240.2
packet leaves eth3 (default gw) to 192.168.249.2

So the modified overlapping NAT parameters for eth1 are working (see
Xlated src addr) but not the static NAT and the routing.

Has someone a similar -working- setup?

With a cisco router this can be done :

How about Check Point?

Kind Regards.
