Hi,

This must be an easy one for the PIX experts.

I have a topoloy as shown below.
Host1---Router ==========IPSEC Tunnel==========(outside)PIXFirewall(inside)
                                                                |
                                                                |
        
Host2

Host1 is trying to ping Host2.
The packet flow would be
Host1----Router------PIX-----Host2.
Is this possible??? Would the PIX forward the packet coming in via the IPSEc
tunnel on the outside interface to the Host2 which is on the LAN attached to
the outside interface.?? Please note that the packet here is not
transitting the PIX.

Cheers
Simon
