Sascha,
if they are unable to use NAT, you can NAT their overlapping ip adress by yourself in your side of the tunnel...

Subject: [FW-1] VPN between R55 and Cisco PIX
Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2007 09:30:28 +0200

Hi there,

we (R55) are in the process of setting up a site-to-site VPN with a Cisco PIX. The far end is not managed by us. Problem: Internal address range overlay - they already use some of the 10.x.x.x addresses that we use. Usually I solve this by just natting and I told them to source NAT our addresses to whatever he can deal with.

The other guy claims that this will not work because or encryption domain does not include his NAT addresses and thus our gateway will keep sending him IKE messages that we want to connect with 10.x.x.x (or build the tunnel with 10.x). As a result, the tunnel would not even come up because his end is not expecting 10.x but his NAT addresses. No payload packets would flow into his end and he would never be able to NAT anything.

I remember doing the same thing on my end without problems, e.g. I natted someone elses addresses to my liking and the tunnels would still come up.

I am not as much of an expert that I could exactly tell what hapens in phase1 and phase2 to rule out what he claims, but I think he is wrong?

If anyone could shed some light on this for me I'd greatly appreciate  it.

Thanks :)

Sascha
