Re: eBGP through PIX Question #2 (static policy nat)

what you're trying to do will NOT work because if you read BGP documentation,
the MD5 hash authentication depends on the IP address of the bgp peer as well
(something to that effect). The only way for eBGP authentication to work is:

static (i,o) 1.1.1.1 1.1.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.255 norandomseq

you have static NAT or policy NAT, ebgp with authentication will not work period.

still authenticate them?

i.e.,

access-list R1R2 permit ip host 1.1.1.1 host 2.2.2.2 (r1 loop to r2 loop)

static (inside,outside) 2.2.2.1 access-list R1R2 norandomseq

It seems that the "norandomseq" is not working for me, because when I remove
the "neighbor password" command on each side, the peering establishes just
fine (otherwise, they stay stuck in ACTIVE).

Is "noradomseq" not supposed to work in a static policy-nat scenario?

Thanks,

Ed
