We have a Cisco 878 router with a Fortigate 100A behind it the Cisco creates a IPSEC VPN for a certain application to an industry based Web portal, what I want to be able to do is create another IPSEC site to site VPN between the Fortigate 100A at this site and another Fortigate at another site.
I can do this if I forward UDP 500 and 4500 through the Cisco to the Fortigate but this stops the Cisco' own VPN as I have explained above.
Is there any way of forwarding ports 500 and 4500 that come from 1 Static external IP address so that the Cisco can use its VPN and 500 & 4500 from the other site can create the Fortigate to Fortigate VPN
 
ip nat inside source static tcp (fortinet_inside_ip) 500 int (outside_interface) 500

Same for port 4500. You need a static NAT translation from the public IP to the private and vice-versa.

Doesn't that command forward all traffic on port 500 to the internal address specified ?
ip nat inside source static udp 192.168.3.2 500 interface Dialer0 500
I have already removed this as it affects the Cisco's VPN
I want to forward traffic from only the 1 external static address from 2nd site through to the Fortigate.
Or would a better option be to forward all ports from the second site to the Fortigate
 
Either replace this
interface Dialer0 500
with the IP address of the fortinet, or maybe it's like that except with an outside source...
ip nat outside source tcp IP_OF_FORTINET 500 192.168.x.x 500
Something like that---I have never had any reason to use an outside NAT translation...let me research this...at least we now have a foundation on what to research now...

If I do a one to one static NAT translation so that all traffic from the external IP off the second sitye is passed through to the Fortigate willthis work ?
 
Hello
The access-list just permits traffic to that inside host.To port forward you will need the below command:

ip nat inside source static tcp 192.168.1.10 143 interface Ethernet1 143

If this doesn’t work try with a basic conf,then once you get it working put the Firewall stuff later.Also make sure you cable Modem is forwarding all ports.
