Appletalk Zone's Pix VPN

[edzy55]

Hi all

Am I correct in saying that pix's only handle ip traffic? I've been given the task of trying to setup zone's across a vpn I configured between 2 different site's. Basically, I have a pix 515 that has an ipsec tunnel to a 506 at the remote site. This I got to work fine, however people want zone's setup now at the different offices that talk to each other. I'm under the impression that this can be done from a router at the private side of each pix and tunnel through that way with GRE. Is this correct and can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance.

I tried to post once but don't know if it went through so anyways...

Are there servers on both sides of the firewall? If so what kind.?

Yes, you could tunnel appletalk over IP. Then the IP traffic will flow.

Thanks for your reply's!
So appletalk zone's will chat across the vpn. However, I need to tunnel this through using router's at either end of the vpn? Is their any side effect's from doing this? Speed reliability etc? Complicated to setup? Just trying to aware of any problems I could face when setting this up. Thanks for your help.
