Vishwa,

The first 0 pertains to the maximun number of connections and the second 0 is the number of embryonic connections that are allowed .

In above link see max_conns for first 0 and emb_limit for second 0

When you issue at command line a static nat entry , you do not have to place the 0 0 at the end since they both default to 0s.

static (Server,outside) 172.20.2.0 172.20.2.0 netmask 255.255.254.0

using same subnet address 172.20.2.0 simply means you are not NATing between the two interfaces.

PLS rate any helpful posts

Vishwa,

using same subnet address 172.20.2.0 simply means you are not NATing between the two interfaces.

A little correction, let me rephrase above statement

with this static nat there is no NAT address translation which means 172.20.2.0 network will be presented to the oustide as 172.20.2.0.
