regular translation creation failed

[avburren1]

Hi,

I have several Errors on the Firewall :

<163>%ASA-3-305006: regular translation creation failed for icmp src LAN:192.168.1.x dst WAN:169.254.x.x (type 0, code 0)

LAN IP (192.168.1.x) are Access point,printers,videoprojector .. ( the errors concerns always the same devices).

What's the error means ?

thank you

From the error message you posted, it seems you do not have any NAT rules configured for this type of traffic.  Can you post your nat and global rules, along with any access-lists that are used in the nat rules?

This is the global NAT rules :

global (WAN) 1 interface

nat (LAN) 0 access-list LAN_nat0_outbound

nat (LAN) 1 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0

nat (DMZ) 0 access-list DMZ_nat0_outbound_1 outside

The different device search to connect to the internet with an icmp message. I don't really understand why.

Your destination is a 169 number - should not go out to WAN!
