VPN client user accessing another network through VPN Tunnel

jatinder.mann · ‎07-07-2006

Hi,

We have VPN setup on cisco 515 firewall as follow:

1. Users can connect to company's network through VPN client. no problem

2. Site to Site VPN tunnels are also terminated on the same PIX on same interface. works fine

The problem is that, The users connected via VPN client also want to access resources on the remote network via site to site tunnel. The IP network scheme on that network is 192.168.10.0 and we are using 172.16.8.0. Everything works fine, but VPN clients cannot access remote site via site to site tunnel.

Please Advise?

Thanks,

Jatinder

Hi Jatinder,

it depends on what version of the PIX OS you are running.

Version 6.x does not allows SPOKE VPNs and you cannot connect from one tunnel to an other one. Just to the local networks.

Version 7.x supports Spoke VPNs.

PIX/ASA 7.x Enhanced Spoke-to-Spoke VPN Configuration Example :
