Hello.  I'm having a few problems getting my ip inspect statments
working properly.  I have an inspect list that covers TCP and UDP
outgoing, and an access list inbound that denys everything.  For the
most part, it works, but it doesn't load certain pages very well.
Things like google maps don't load the maps, and other "dynamic" pages
have problems.  Has anyone else run into this before?  Here are my
statements:


ip inspect max-incomplete high 9000
ip inspect max-incomplete low 9000
ip inspect one-minute high 9000
ip inspect one-minute low 9000
ip inspect name MYFW tcp audit-trail on timeout 1800
ip inspect name MYFW udp audit-trail on timeout 10

interface Dialer1
 ip address negotiated
 ip inspect MYFW out
 ip access-group 101 in
 ip access-group ALL out
 ip nat outside
 ip virtual-reassembly max-fragments 45 max-reassemblies 300 timeout
60
 encapsulation ppp
 ip tcp adjust-mss 1452
 dialer pool 1
 dialer-group 1

ip access-list extended ALL
 permit ip any any

access-list 101 permit tcp any any eq domain
access-list 101 permit udp any any eq domain
access-list 101 permit tcp any any established
access-list 101 permit icmp any any echo-reply
access-list 101 permit icmp any any time-exceeded
access-list 101 permit icmp any any unreachable
access-list 101 deny   icmp any any


Any suggestions would be great!

Thanks,
Kelly

First of all are you sure that the inspection engine is the cause of
the problem? if you remove the ACLs and the inspect commands
everything works properly?

Since you use CBAC, you don't need "permit tcp any any established" in
acl 101. That's what CBAC is for.

if you have confirmed that cbac makes the problem, I would suggest to
add as last lines in list 101:
access-list 101 deny tcp any gt 0 any gt 0 log
access-list 101 deny udp any gt 0 any gt 0 log
access-list 101 deny ip any any log
and try to correlate the logs of the router with the pages that fail
to load.

also you should add the line:
 ip inspect log drop-pkt , it will show you any drops that the CBAC
engine does.
