RE: help with troubleshooting Cisco VPN connection [7:23695]
Using a different IP subnet is the way to do it. The PIX treats this like a virtual interface and has the intelligence built in to forward traffic between the inside and the VPN address range. Looking at your config, I agree with removing the conduit statement but I don't believe that is causing the issue. Really, besides some unexpected things (such as no NAT for Internet access), I don't see anything glaringly obvious that would cause your issue. The one thing I know I have had issues with is using numbers for access lists on a PIX. Recently, I lost track of what I was configurin and used numbered (extended IP) access lists on a PIX. Nothing worked right! I noticed my mistake, changed the access lists to my normal names and eveything worked again. I suggest trying this. Also, if the access list 80 is not needed, which doesn't look to be in this config, I would remove it as well. Other than that, I might suspect that you have a hardware issue since this same config works on a similar PIX with the same OS.

Re: help with troubleshooting Cisco VPN connection [7:23695]
Chris, I don't know how long you have been working with PIX but on the VPN client, the client will get an IP between 172.16.2.1 and 172.16.2.254. The access-list will make the necessary connectivity to 172.16.1.0/24 network. If you've read this post from start to finish, you would know that the exact configuration works on the PIX520 but not the PIX515. Even Cisco TAC guy is also scratching his head over this. >From: "chris" >Reply-To: "chris" >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: help with troubleshooting Cisco VPN connection [7:23695] >Date: Mon, 22 Oct 2001 23:35:41 -0400 > >In your config below the vpn client is being assigned an address that is on >a different subnet than the inside interface of the pix and there is no >sign >of a router on that subnet (no default inside route to a router). > >BTW, you may want to get rid of the conduit permit any any! > >Chris > >""Anh Lam"" wrote in message >[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > > Can someone in this group help me with this problem? > > > > I am trying to setup VPN connections for remote users (people > > who use laptops on the road or when people to who are on their > > own corporate network) to connect to my home network using > > IPSec.

RE: help with troubleshooting Cisco VPN connection [7:23695]
Looks like you have the NAT 0 in place. I'm wondering about the IP Pool. I see your access-list 101 allows 172.16.1.0 to 172.16.2.0, both subnetted to /24. I wonder if maybe the PIX is looking at the IP Pool as a Class B address since you cannot specify the mask in the IP Pool statement? If so, would it work to do an access-list like: Access-list 101 permit ip 172.16.0.0 255.255.0.0 172.16.0.0 Just a guess. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Anh Lam Sent: Sunday, October 21, 2001 4:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject:help with troubleshooting Cisco VPN connection in [7:23695] Can someone in this group help me with this problem? I am trying to setup VPN connections for remote users (people who use laptops on the road or when people to who are on their own corporate network) to connect to my home network using IPSec.

The clients are running either WinNT 4.0 workstation, or Win2k Professional or RedHat Linux 7.1 with kernel 2.4.10.

In your config below the vpn client is being assigned an address that is on a different subnet than the inside interface of the pix and there is no sign of a router on that subnet (no default inside route to a router).
