Access outside address from the inside (howto) open original image

At work I access the internet through a Cisco ASA 5510.



We also have a webserver at the same subnet as myself, that is visible from the outside (the internet). However it is not visible from the inside. I have to use some internal 192.168.1.* address to access it from the inside. But all our DNS addresses points to our external IP visible only from the outside.



Is is possible to configure an Cisco ASA 5510 to access the outside address from the inside? Our network department has not been able to make it work.



Thanks in advance

Yes. Lookup DNS doctoring on cisco.com. Here is one example:

put your servers accessable from internet on a DMZ (Which I hope you have allready done!) and give this DMZ public IP's Then your problems are gone, but access and DNS. HTH Martin
