SSH Access through 3745+Firewall/IDS enabled

[m.mohamedmohideen]

I am facing a problem allowing SSH access from Internet to a VPN device located behind Cisco 3745 router. 3745 is configured with Firewall/IDS feature set.

I added following access list to enable SSH

Access-list 101 permit tcp any host 122.100.10.1 eq 22

I also enabled all IP traffic to the VPN device with the following access list entry

Access-list 101 permit ip any host 122.100.10.1

Above two acl entries did not allow SSH access from Internet. I suspect that Firewall feature set is blocking SSH access through the router.

SSH access was possible before 3745 router was introduced.

I do not require SSH enabled on the 3745 router.

I want to access a VPN device using SSH through 3745 router. SSH is possible when Firewall/ IDS configuration is removed. When Firewall/IDS configuration added, SSH to inside VPN device is not possible.

Thanks
