LAN to DMZ access on FWSM

Muhammad Khan — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 17:36:17 GMT

I have following config on FWSM and it works fine for Internet bound access.

object-group network LAN
network-object 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0

object-group network DMZ
network-object 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0

nat (LAN) 1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
global (outside) 1 <Public IP>

access-list CORP_ACL line 7 extended permit tcp object-group LAN any eq www <-- Tied to LAN interface inbound

I am getting following error while trying to access DMZ from LAN:

010-04-22T16:19:14+01:00 FWSM_ABC %FWSM-6-106015: Deny TCP (no connection) from 192.168.1.10/80 to 10.1.1.10/3735 flags SYN ACK on interface DMZ

I wonder it is a NAT issue and following config will fix it?

access-list CORP_ACL line 6 extended permit tcp object-group LAN object-group DMZ object-group LAN2DMZ_PORTS

access-list NOT_O extended permit tcp object-group LAN object-group DMZ object-group LAN2DMZ_PORTS

nat (inside) 0 access-list NAT_O

Thanks in advance.

correction:

Last config line is

nat (LAN) 0 access-list NAT_O

It is probably not a nat issue.

Check if your TCP SYN goes from inside to dmz.

The syslog says that I have no connection knowledge about this connection. So the packet from the DMZ that is a response of a SYN packet is dropped.

Check if the SYN is routed through different interfaces in the ASA or if it not hitting the ASA at all.

I hope it helps.
