Intermittent Internet Connection and VPN clients can't ping internal LAN but connected after installating cisco ASA5512x

ejnavarro06 — Tue, 12 Mar 2019 00:58:25 GMT

Hi!

I wish someone can help me on this, I'm a new guy on cisco firewalls and I'm currently implementing cisco asa 5512x, here are the details:

ISP -> Firewall -> Core switch -> Internal LAN

after installing the cisco asa and terminating the appropriate lan for the outside and inside interfaces, internet seems intermittent and cisco vpn client can connect with internet connection but can't ping internal LAN.

here's my configuration from my firewall.

ASA Version 8.6(1)2

Intermittent Internet Connection and VPN clients can't ping inte

Andrew Phirsov — Sun, 10 Feb 2013 07:01:39 GMT

I think you should change your nat-exemption rule to smth more general, like

nat (inside,outside) source static any any destination static NETWORK_OBJ_10.10.10.0_28 NETWORK_OBJ_10.10.10.0_28 no-proxy-arp route-lookup

'cause your inside networks are not the same as your vpn-pool subnet.

Plus, if you're trying to reach inside subnets, different from 10.152.11.0 255.255.255.0 (ip from wich subnet is assignet to your inside interface, and for wich above nat exception should be enough), you should check if routing is configured from that subnets to your vpn-pool-subnet through the ASA.
