Hey Ian--

   Are you using split-tunneling with the VPN? If so, make sure that the ACL
permits the DMZ.

Hi,

We're having a problem with our VPN; we have a PIX 515E with 4
interfaces:

Inside (security100) - Our internal LAN, 150.150.10.0/24
Outside (security0) - The Internet
Perimeter (security50) - DMZ, 172.16.1.0/24
Innerperimeter (security75) - "Inner" DMZ, 150.150.11.0/24

The VPN is a certificate/token-based set up, with VPN users being
assigned addresses from 150.150.62.0/24 (don't ask me about the weird
addressing scheme; it was like that when I got here).

The problem we're having is that VPN users can't access hosts in either
of the DMZs, although they can see LAN hosts just fine.  I'm assuming
that this is because the VPN traffic is coming in through the PIX's
"outside" interface, and the usual rule about traffic from interfaces
with a lower security level going to an interface with a higher one is
applying.

I've tried to override this with another access list, by "nat 0"-ing
the two DMZ interfaces, but external VPN users still can't see hosts in
the DMZs.  Obviously I'm screwing up somewhere, but I'd be very grateful
if someone could tell me how.

Ta,
IR.
