Hi Guys
I am trying to lock down the VPN access on my Cisco 5520 ASA's whereby I wish not to allow users to SSH access etc on servers running on the same interface that they are VPNing into.
I did not originally configure the ASA and so I am slightly confused by some config on it. Currently when I attempt to PING a server within the same interface as the VPN network I get the following error in the logs below.
5 Jul 05 2012 09:45:15 305013 monitoringsystem Asymmetric NAT rules matched for forward and reverse flows; Connection for icmp src dmzAHdata:VPN IP dst AHdata:monitoringsystem (type 8, code 0) denied due to NAT reverse path failure
As a workaround I created a NAT exempt rule which then allowed traffic to the server in question however I wish to limit the traffic to only ICMP and when I do this in the firewall it does not take affect. Is this because of the NAT exempt rule?
Any help is much appreciated
