Hi Sascha,
I think it is better if I can illustrate with an example:
FWa has internal network of 192.168.1.0/24. FWa is a CP firewall
FWb has internal network of 192.168.2.0/24. FWb is a CP firewall
FWc has internal network of 192.168.2.0/24. FWc is a Pix firewall.
you have site-to-site vpn between FWa and FWb. No problem so far. Now you
are trying to establish site-2-site vpn between FWa and FWc. Problem indeed.
Solution:
NAT the internal network of FWa from 192.168.1.0/24 to 10.1.1.0/24. In other
words, in the encryption domain of FWa, you will have two networks:
192.168.1.0/24 and 10.1.1.0/24. When you define an Inter-Operable Device for
the Cisco Pix, you will have to include network 10.1.2.0/24 in the remote
encryption domain.
In the address translation tab, do this:
source dest translate source trans
destination
192.168.1.0/24 10.1.2.0/24 10.1.1.0/24 original
10.1.2.0/24 10.1.1.0/24 original 192.168.1.0/24
On the Cisco Pix side, the reverse is true. It is called policy nat on the
pix side.
In summary, from FWA, when you want to communicate with network behind
the Cisco Pix, you will NAT the source to 10.1.1.0/24 and the destination will
be 10.1.2.0/24. On the Pix side, the source will be 10.1.2.0/24 and destination
will be 10.1.1.0/24. NO ip address of 192.168.x.0/24 will exist anywhere inside
the VPN tunnel.
Hope that makes sense to you.

closely related to the other question I asked a couple of days ago, I
was just thinking about how to configure a site-to-site VPN if the
remote peer uses IP addresses that I already use in another VPN. I
guess I could just NAT his address range to whatever I like and I can
work with, but what I can't figure out is what I would put into the
encryption domain of the remote end's gateway object. His original
addresses or the NAT addresses I defined?
I figure that if I use the original addressses, it might not work
because I already have these addresses in another encryption domain
and VPN-1 could not decide which VPN to use...? But if I use the NAT
addresses, wouldn't I see tons of "no valid SA" entries in my log
because within the VPN tunnel the IP addresses are different than
those in the enc domain...?
Confusing. Hope my thoughts make sense to you and you can give me
some enlightment :)
Cheers
Sascha
