PIX 501 to 2811 VPN

I have a basic VPN working between a PIX 501 and a 2811 router. However, I notice that devices behind the 2811 cannot initiate communication with the 501 first. Something behind the 501 must start the communication first. Then communication can happen both ways. Is this normal? I would like for communication to be able to start from either side. Any help would be greatly appreciated.



Thanks,

It is if you have not used 'static' or 'nat 0 access-list'.
