Thanks cicso4ng,
Would the mods mentioned in part 1 of the "keep in mind" list affect
other VPN tunnels we have active?
Also, forgive my ignorance, what is "gui-bdedit"? and what is the
sytax for adding the networks to $FWDIR/lib/user.def?
Thanks,
Alan

A few things to keep in mind when doing IPSec between checkpoint and
Pix devices:
1) Checkpoint tends to "suppernet" the network so be careful
about this because
this will cause problem and Quick Mode (aka phase II) will
fail. To fix this, set
"IKE_largest_possible_subnet" via gui-dbedit from true to
false. Furthermore,
you can modify the file $FWDIR/lib/user.def and include every
network on the
checkpoint side to prevent the suppernet situation
2) make sure that you have the timeout setting match on both CP
and Cisco Pix.
The default timeout for CP is 86400 sec and 3600 sec for phase I
and phase II,
respectively. On the pix, the default timeout setting is 86400
and 28800 for phase I
and phase II, respectively. To change this on the Pix, do this:
crypto map xxx set security-association lifetime seconds 3600
Other than that, you site-to-site VPN should work without issues
regardless, you
have Nokia or SPLAT.

Hi Alan,
I have done it before with a NG AI and Cisco PIX 6.3 IOS, so I guess it
should work in a SPLAT like yours,
