Do you mean to say once nat is not there you get 250-300 ms from HQ to branch? If you firewall is oversubcribed then i would say it should add higher latency.

You should look for a trace from outside and also CPU/ Memory utalization of firewall to check where extra latancy is getting added.

Thanks

NO i mean we get normal response 250-300 ms HQ to outside link ping responsc of 4.2.2.2 . no branch included . if we nat branch ip mentioned above sudenly latency get high while pinging 4.2.2.2 so firewall does not behave normally in this case.

howwver if we remove natting command from firewall still we get latemcy after rebooting only it comes normal

second it is possible or practical to nat ip of branch office in headquarter firewall. it is suggested by cisco ?

please help

What firewall is it ?and what kind of behaviour do you seee HIGH CPU ? any logs in firewall ? I dont think just adding one more nat rule shuld cause any problem to your internet connectivity.

yes thats all depend upon your network topology however no harm doing nat on HQ FW.

Thanks

Ajay

my firewall mode 5510 version 7.0 iwill test once user are out and take logs and cpu processess output then post

Thanks for your kind support
