ISAKMP and NAT

franzin

Level 1

I've configure a PIX using IPsec (ESP-DES) and ISAKMP with a non CISCO

device.

Between the equipments a router configured with NAT (Cisco 3620)

translates only addresses through a static one-to-one nat rule.

It works fine, but I need answer to one main question:

How it works if the ISAKMP protocol specifies that the "cookie" that

must be created to exchange data for the SA is dependent from the source

address, destinantion address and port numbers carried by the

packet ?

I need this answer to prove that no relaxing of the protocol was

develop to achieve this feature and the NAT isn't creating a lack of

security.

Cisco support ipsec standard. Try this for possible explanation:
