Hello all!

I'm working on setting up a site to site VPN between a Cisco ASA 5520,version 8.0(3) and a Cisco 851W. I've been able to get the 851 to connect and create the tunnel, and I've been able to access the resources on the internal network.

The issue is that I want the remote site to access the internet by going through our corporate firewall and content filter. When I try to access an internet site, the ASA is dropping the traffic. The log on the ASA shows the entry:
"Teardown TCP connection 8605 for outside:{Source IP} to outside:{destination IP} duration 0:00:00 bytes 0 Flow is a loopback"

I understand that this is "As Designed". What I would like to find is a configuration setting that will re-direct traffic bound for the internet.

Any thoughts?
 
Is the ASA that their VPN terminates on the same firewall you are trying to send them out of? If so, then you are out of luck from the filtering standpoint. You could easily route them out of your connection but it would just merely slow them down. What filtering solution are you using?
 
brianinms: The firewall for our internet connection is sepperate from the ASA. It actually resides in our corporate office in another state. It uses "WebSense" as the filtering source.
