Hi,
I am having problems creating a vpn through a PIX 515 software version
7.0(4) to an internal subnet routed by a 1721 Router IOS version 12.4(3f).External Client/Cisco VPN Client Software | \\ / PIX (192.168.1.1 - static route to 10.10.10.0 network through router) | \\ / Internal Network (192.168.1.0 - default gw 192.168.1.1) | \\ / Cisco 1721 Router (192.168.1.7/10.10.10.254) | \\ / Internal Subnet (10.10.10.0 - default gw 10.10.10.254)
Both internal networks can talk to one another through the router without a problem. VPN to the 192. network also works fine. The problem is that the VPN connection. The VPN connection assigns an address in the 192.168.5.0 address range to clients.
When clients attempt to connect to the 10.10.10.0 network they do not route properly and go through the VPN Client Software. Instead, they try to connect through their own lan interface. As far as I can tell, there is no way to set a static route using the VPN Client Software. Even trying to set the route through Windows doesn't work.
I have considered setting up a new VPN connection at the Pix that would assign a 10.10.10.?? address, however I don't think they will route back through the 1721 because the address will look local.
I can set up a new VPN connection on the PIX and it only needs to have access to the 10.10.10.0 network as this will be for service connections for devices only on this subnet.
I hope this makes sense. I have used the PIX for some time, however I am still far from a skilled user. The 1721 router is a new thing for me and I still have a long ways to go.
Thanks in advance.
