The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Cisco PIX Client VPN

Asked by jessmca in Miscellaneous Networking, Networking Hardware Firewalls, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)

Tags: pix, cisco


Hi,

I want to use a Cisco PIX router to allow remote access using the Cisco 4.8 VPN client software.

I need some advice on the best way to configure this.

I have configured ethernet port 1 with a static IP 192.168.10.12, DNS 192.168.10.5 and gateway as the firewall 192.168.10.254
PIX can access everything, local and Internet.

   Internet
      |
     FW
      |
   SWITCH
 =======
 |      |     |
PIX    |     |
         |     |
       LAN NETWORK

I then used the VPN wizard to configure the VPN connection.

I gave the VPN pool an ip address on the same subnet 192.168.10.150 to 192.168.10.190 which are excluded on the LAN DHCP.  

1
Im not sure if this is correct or I should be using a different subnet for the VPN connections and allowing access via firewall.
Which is best?

The firewall has NATed an fixed IP onto the PIX.  I can get ping replies and now can also get the Client software to reach the PIX. However, I dont get a login except from LAN.  

2
When I connect to the VPN on the LAN, I get an IP of 192.168.10.150 which is also the gateway.
I cannot ping any IP on the LAN except 192.168.10.150
VPN requests do not appear to be forwarding to the LAN gateway.
Do I need to manually add a route for VPN traffic and if so, any suggestions?

3
Externally, although I can reach the PIX using ping, the client software does not bring up the login box, bt times out when using the external IP adddress.
Do I need to add the external ip address to the allowed ip addresses or what is required to get this working externally?

4
Is the above outline the right way to do this or is there a better way.  I have only oine cable into the PIX which connects to the LAN and is accessable externally.

Thanks
Here is the current running config
