Hi all, I have a client that is using SonicWall with dynamic public IP address assigned to their DSL. They want to establish a VPN tunnel a PIX Firewall in one of their remote sites using static IP addresses. Is that possible? Something like a VPN client (SonicWall) to a VPN server (PIX) relationship but it will establish a site-to-site VPN tunnel? Thanks in advance, Al

It should work. On the PIX, set up a crypto dynamic map with the transform set, and import that into your crypto map with a high policy number. If you are using preshared keys, set up an isakmp key on the PIX; if you know the range of IP addresses that might be assigned, you can use the appropriate netmask; otherwise you'll have to use the 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 address on the isakmp key.
