I've got a vpn to a corporate network, which has vpn to clients. Now I can telnet into a unix box, then telnet to the clients.

Is there anyway I can route ip so that I can telnet directly into the clients?

This is with a pix 506

Thanks!
 
Dougnc,

Nope. One of the fundamental rules of security is not to allow something in and then out again on the same interface. It's just bad.

You VPN traffic gets to the PIX, unencrypted and then dropped out on the LAN. It is sourced from the PIX.

You are doing the right thing using a box inside the network to VPN out.

Liberty for All,

Brian
