Cisco 2621 traceroute and ping.

[kynguyen]

I am having a problem with being able to ping and trace route out of our corporate office. Our setup is - point to point from corp (2501) to colocation (2621) via a T1 line. From 2621 router to ISP cloud through a cisco pix. Now for some reason I can ping and do a trace to everywhere inside the pix once i try to perform a ping or trace to ie www.yahoo.com then it stops at the 2621 router. Any help is greatly appreciated.

The PIX has to be set to allow ICMP traffic to pass. Check out Cisco's PIX Support Website at:

You can find alot of documents, including one on handling ICMP traffic, which gives exact procedure to allow pings and ping replys.
