topic PIX to NetGear Troubles in Network Security https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/pix-to-netgear-troubles/m-p/371929#M554941 <P>I have PIX 506e at office and NetGear FVS318 at home. I can create a VPN connection between the two (initiating it from the PIX as the PIX sits behind a SMC router that does not allow VPN traffic to originate from outside). I'm sure I have a VPN connection because on the PDM graphs, I see IPSEC and IKE tunnels that have been created and a status of QM_IDLE. My problem is that I cannot do anything across the tunnel I can ping from either network all day long and never get a reply back. I cannot see my office terminal server from my home computer. Below is my PIX listing. Passwords between the two devices are correct, as are the encryption/authentication/etc... settings.</P><P></P><P>my config file is attached</P><P></P><P>Any help would be appreciated.</P><P></P><P>Also, as my FVS318 outside IP is dynamically assigned, is there a way to configure the pix to look for a dynamic VPN host?</P><P></P><P>Thanks</P><P></P><P></P><P> </P><P></P> Fri, 21 Feb 2020 07:44:43 GMT millergm 2020-02-21T07:44:43Z PIX to NetGear Troubles https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/pix-to-netgear-troubles/m-p/371929#M554941 <P>I have PIX 506e at office and NetGear FVS318 at home.

Unfortunately, there really are no other options that to allow ESP between the 2 firewalls. All of the IPSec transparency options are for client to concentrator (or PIX).</P><P></P><P>Scott</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 15 Nov 2004 02:06:58 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/pix-to-netgear-troubles/m-p/371930#M554942 scoclayton 2004-11-15T02:06:58Z
