Ok Here is my situation. Currently we have a Cisco 3030 concentrator using the cisco VPN software client to connect.

My company now wants me to use the pix 501 for the SOHO users. My situation is this. I can get the Pix to create a tunnel with the 3030 and the pix is doint a NAT translation to the SOHO workstations which works but what I need to do is allow the Concentrator to assign the IP addresses to the Pix which in term forwards those addresses the attached workstations. The reason for this is because the software that the SOHO team uses on there PC needs to be able to talk to the corporate unit servers keeping the same address all the way through without any translation. Here is an example. Pix Creates a tunnel with the 3030, the 3030 assignes a pool of address to the pix which them assigned to the workstation/s that are attached to the pix. Now the workstation send a request back to the 3030 using the same assigned address from the 3030. In other term NO IP TRANSLATION. Is this possible and how. Does anyone have an example or working config that I can use? I am new to all this.
