Hey all,
This is really my first time dealing with cisco stuff so please bear with my ignorance. 🙂 The last month or so I've been trying to get a vpn tunnel established between my network and a remote site. Finally, I have it established but it screws up internet connectivity. My local machines are configured (used the route add command from command prompt) to use the private I/F of my PIX as the default gateway if they want to reach the remote site. Prior to adding this PIX we had a router between us and the internet. If I reintroduce that router between my PCs and the PIX, I can no longer connect to the remote site or the internet but internet will work fine if I bring down the vpn tunnel. If I were to connect the PC directly to the pix, internet still does not work but can connect to the remote site. This is what I'm trying to establish:
LAN --- Router --- PIX ---- Internet and VPN Tunnel
The VPN tunnel works fine (using it's public interface). I made the PIX itself allow all outbound traffic (by default it allows them all??). Does the VPN tunnel need to be on a separate interface on the pix? Is that what is causing internet to fail?
I'm probably all over the place here but will appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks.
