I do not have any VPN setup

ahmadagra · ‎02-02-2015

Hello all i am getting the following error in the activity log Asymmetric NAT rules matched for forward and reverse flows denied due to NAT reverse path failure. I am connected via Cisco ASDM 6.4 for ASA

Here is the error:

Hi Ahmad,

Please send the sanitized output, its difficult to read it. The problem you stated,

Asymmetric NAT rules matched for forward and reverse flows; Connection for udp src inside:10.10.10.10/137 dst outside:208.109.88.163/137 denied due to NAT reverse path failure

It is generally seen when you have not exempted the VPN interesting traffic from NAT.

Here you go, sorry not sure why it was formatted like that before:

Hi,

Please send the configuration related to VPN tunnel. In the above output, tunnel-group and group-policy information is missing.

Are you connecting via ssl vpn or via remote access IPSec VPN.

ahmadagra · ‎02-03-2015

Currently I do not have VPN setup (ssl/ipsec) on the router. Instead i have a VPN client on the server attached to this router that's forming an IPSEC tunnel with a remote Netgear VPN router via Netgear's VPN app.

Result of the command: "show crypto isakmp sa"

There are no isakmp sas

Result of the command: "show crypto ipsec sa"

There are no ipsec sas

Poonam Garg · ‎02-03-2015

Hi Ahmad,

Your topology is not clear at all. Please send the topology so as to get clear picture and to understand the requirement. Also please clearly state when you are getting this log ?

ahmadagra · ‎02-03-2015

I do not have any VPN setup on the Cisco router. I have a Windows Server machine connected to the LAN port of this router and on that machine i have the program Netgear VPN client lite installed. The program forms an IPSEC tunnel with another router in a remote location (Netgear Prosafe SRX5308). I get this error when i try to access a windows share located on the Windows server behind the Cisco router via IP/hostname from the remote location.

I hope that cleared things up a bit?

Poonam Garg · ‎02-03-2015

where this ASA firewall is placed in this scenario, as you have send the configuration of only ASA.

ahmadagra · ‎02-03-2015

Once the VPN tunnel is made via the netgear program the ASA firewall should not be involved any more but it is causing problems which is why i am posting here to get that error resolved. I have done created tunnels via the netgear program multiple times in the past and never had this issue. The Cisco router is interfering with the machine access from the remote site and i have a feeling its due to the NAT config.

Poonam Garg · ‎02-03-2015

Sorry Ahmad,

Still I don't get where this firewall is coming in between this traffic.

ahmadagra · ‎02-03-2015

I see, the Cisco ASA is not coming in at all. It is just a firewall provided by GoDaddy. I believe it is interfering with access to the machine from the remote location due to the NAT routing...

I can setup an ipsec VPN from the Cisco router to the other netgear router BUT i get the same error when i try to access the server using its external IP for RDP (port 3389) from the remote location or anywhereelse...error below:
