DMZ to inside access ISSUE !! ...assitance appreciated

Hari_gedda
Level 1
Level 1

Allow the web  server(193.170.4.2) in DMZ to communicate with the our exchange server(10.77.51.87) internally via SMTP..for which I used access-list acl-dmz permit tcp host 193.170.4.2 host 10.77.51.87 eq smtp but it did not work. Is it because of the deny ip line in acl-outbound..or the nat ..please clarify. FYi ...here is the configuration.

PIX_6.3(5)_515#

access-group acl-inbound in interface outside

access-group acl-outbound in interface inside

access-group acl-dmz in interface dmz1

PIX_6.3(5)_515#

PIX_6.3(5)_515# sh access-list acl-outbound | in deny

access-list acl-outbound line 86 deny ip 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 193.170.4.0 255.255.255.0 (hitcnt=1209)

access-list acl-outbound line 90 deny ip any any (hitcnt=1014022)

PIX_6.3(5)_515#

PIX_6.3(5)_515#

PIX_6.3(5)_515# sh access-list acl-dmz

access-list acl-dmz; 2 elements

access-list acl-dmz line 1 permit udp host 193.170.4.2 host 198.6.1.4 eq domain (hitcnt=5625)

access-list acl-dmz line 2 permit ip host 193.170.4.2 any (hitcnt=1089)

Sent you a PM ...appreciate  your turnaround Varun.

Have tried it ..but you see there is a deny ip  10.0.0.0 line in the acl-outbound...I thought this could be the issue.

Also the

static (dmz1,inside) 212.140.175.173 193.170.4.2 netmask 255.255.255.255 0 0

is it really needed ? ...

You would need this config:

access-list acl-dmz permit tcp host 193.170.4.2 host 10.77.51.87 eq smtp

static (inside,dmz1) 10.77.51.87  10.77.51.87

It shoudl work after this.

Hi Hari,

If the traffic is being initiated from the dmz1 interface then the access-list should not be a problem, since only the access-list on the dmz1 interface woudl matter. The traffic would be allowed back since it already has a state maintained by teh firewall. Also if you dont require the static then please remove it. You can also remove the deny acl if not needed.

It did not work this morning ..so will try to remove the deny line and also the static (dmz1,inside) line. Will let you know  the result Varun. Thanks a lot for clarifiying things.

Thanks again...

To let you know , this isssue was resolved...as I could the trace the problem was actually with the anitvirus..which was treating my telnet on port smtp as a mail worm.

Thanks Varun ..you  help is much appreciated.
