nat (outside)

[cbeazley]

I have a need for translating a valid outside address to an internal address. Anyone have any ideas ?

I think all you need (besides an access-list) is:

nat (outside) 1 <addr> <mask>
global (inside) 1 <inside_addr>

Do you want the internal hosts to use the valid external ip?
if so :
global (outside) 1 <outside_addr> <netmask>
nat (inside) 1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0 0

This will allow all internal hosts to use the public ip on the outside.

Actually all I want to do is have internal users see an external ip as an internal ip. Sort of like making the pix a dns server. The reason is that I have a multinic firewall. Each nic being (obviously) a separate network. On two networks I have two devices that contain the same loopback address and can't be changed. I need to be able to access each device so I thought if I could translate one of the addresses to an internal address and leave the other one as original I be all set. I know it can be done but have had no luck so far.
