Introduction

This document describes the steps used to translate (NAT) the VPN traffic that travels over a LAN-to-LAN (L2L) IPsec tunnel between two security appliances and also PAT the Internet traffic. Each security appliance has a private, protected network behind it. In this example two Cisco Adaptive Security Appliances (ASAs) with identical and overlapping internal networks are connected over the VPN tunnel. In a normal scenario, communication across the VPN never happens because the ping packets never leave the local subnet since the user pings the IP address of the same subnet. For these two private internal networks to communicate with each other, Policy NAT is used on both ASAs for translation of the local subnet so that the communication happens as expected.

Prerequisites

Requirements

Make sure you have configured the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance with IP addresses on the interfaces, and have basic connectivity before you proceed with this configuration example.

Components Used

The information in this document is based on this software version:

- Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software version 7.x and later.

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Related Products

This configuration can also be used with Cisco PIX Security Appliance version 7.x and later.

Troubleshoot

Clear Security Associations

When you troubleshoot, be sure to clear existing SAs after you make a change. In the privileged mode of the PIX, use these commands:

- clear crypto ipsec sa - Deletes the active IPsec SAs.

- clear crypto isakmp sa - Deletes the active IKE SAs.

Troubleshooting Commands

The Output Interpreter Tool (registered customers only) supports certain show commands. Use the OIT in order to view an analysis of show command output.

Note: Refer to Important Information on Debug Commands before you use debug commands.

- debug crypto ipsec - Displays the IPsec negotiations of Phase 2.

- debug crypto isakmp - Displays the ISAKMP negotiations of Phase 1.
