Host in DMZ cannot get outside (ASA 5505)

ralf.rottmann

Level 1

Hi there,

Based on the configuration pasted below, we believe the host (10.0.2.200 / 255.255.255.0 GW: 10.0.2.1 with external DNS servers configured) should have access to the web. However, it cannot resolve any names nor can it connect outside. Any idea why? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Here is the config:

ciscoasa# show running-configuration

                             ^

ERROR: % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

ciscoasa# show runn

ciscoasa# show running-config

You need to add:

object network obj_any_dmz

  subnet 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

  nat (dmz,outside) dynamic interface.

Yes, once you delete it, you need to add this:

object network obj_any_dmz

  subnet 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

  nat (dmz,outside) dynamic interface.

Hi,

You are currently nat'ing inside traffic to go outside, you need to do the same to allow your DMZ to get out.

nat (dmz,outside) dynamic interface

Kind Regards,

Kevin

Wow, that was a speedy response. Thanks!

Could you explain how I do that on a) CLI and b) ASDM? That would be just fantastic!

Copy and paste the line below in your CLI.

nat (dmz,outside) dynamic interface

Getting an error:

gcxfw(config)# nat (dmz,outside) dynamic interface

                                 ^

ERROR: % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

Ok,

Try this...

nat (dmz,outside) 2 source dynamic any interface

Make sure you copy and paste or type it verbatim.. there is a in between "nat" and "(dmz,outside)".

Kind Regards, Kevin Sheahan, CCIE # 41349

The command did work but the host stil seems to be unable to go outside...

You need to add:

object network obj_any_dmz

  subnet 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

  nat (dmz,outside) dynamic interface.

Varun, thanks for checking back in. :-)

I'll add that in a moment. How can I rewoke this one before:

nat (dmz,outside) 2 source dynamic any interface

Best,

-Ralf

Just put a "no" in front of it in the config mode.

Worked like a charm. Could you briefly explain what the command does?

Sent from Cisco Technical Support iPad App

Hi,

The command just nats all your traffic from the DMZ interface to the outside interface of the ASA, glad it helped.

Thanks again. I thought NAT is only required for inbound traffic. Why do I have to NAT outgoing connections?
