WAN connection

ben_ndivo · ‎03-22-2003

I have a remote site connection to my Main site through a 1760 Router and then to the ISP Via a PIX 506 Firewall.The remote router also a 1760 can ping upto the Main site router but not the firewall nor the clients on the Main site.

I've nat'ed Remote clients to a pool of IP's from the Main site and the configuration has previously worked but now seems not to.

Any better configuration that I need utilise guys?

Thanks

We need to take a look on the config of remote and main site's 1760 router. Based on that we can troubleshoot the nat issues if any. so post the config from both the routers here.

Hi,

The configs for my Remote and Main sites are as follows.I have altered IPs

and Names consistently so that it reflects the exact scenario I have.

192.160.1.1 is the PIX 506.And since it allows internet access

for 192.160.1.0, if I can get my remote nat'ed to this site then the PIX

settings should ideally work fine for the remote site as well or I am wrong?

The configuration looks fine. You also mentioned it has

worked before but now it's not. Were there any changes made on the routers?

ben_ndivo · ‎03-24-2003

The only change I did was on the Remote-LAN Pool IP addresses but I have as well reverted this back to it's original and still it won't work.Any ideas or any other config that I need try out?

a.manosca · ‎03-24-2003

Right now, are there existing entries in the NAT table? If there are, would it possible to clear them and then do some tests again?

How about the connectivity between hosts, routers, and PIX? Can you still not ping any host at the Main including the PIX?

ben_ndivo · ‎03-25-2003

Thought this would be interesting to note .There are no Dynamic entries in the NAT table but only the static translation below.

Pro Inside global Inside local Outside local Outside global

--- --- --- 192.160.2.2 192.160.1.3

I can telnet and ping into my remote Router only from the Main site router and not from any host machine or from the PIX.

Remote hosts are pinging my mainsite router.The connectivity seems to fail only between my Main site router and the PIX for Remote traffic.It's like Remote traffic is still seen as from 192.160.2.0 and not 192.160.1.0 even after nat'ing.

More Ideas ...guys

The translation table will surely help. When you do a ping from the Main site router

or hosts or PIX, what Remote site address are you pinging? What is the defined gateway

for the main site hosts? You also mentioned that remote hosts can ping your main site

router. What was the remote host's address? The main site router could probably ping

the remote because it is using the serial interface as the source of the ping.

Have you tried extended ping using FastEthernet0/0's address as the source?

From the NAT table, it did not show translations from hosts on 192.160.2.0,

so I think NAT is not working as expected. I really find your problem very

interesting so I hope you could still post some more info. Thanks.
