Hi,

I would like to secure an inbound access-list on a PIX 525 running
software version 8.

Hosts on the outside will connect to 3 servers on the inside for WWW.

This will involve an explicit access rule and NAT.

The servers are named and grouped:

name 192.168.1.1 SERVER1
name 192.168.1.2 SERVER2
name 192.168.1.3 SERVER3

object-group network SERVERS
network-object host SERVER1
network-object host SERVER2
network-object host SERVER3

Static NAT is used to map the outside 10.x.x.x addresses to 192.x.x.x.
on the inside:

static (inside,outside) 10.10.10.1 SERVER1 netmask 255.255.255.255
static (inside,outside) 10.10.10.2 SERVER2 netmask 255.255.255.255
static (inside,outside) 10.10.10.3 SERVER3 netmask 255.255.255.255

I have then created an access-list to permit access to the SERVERS
network-group:

access-list outside_access_in extended permit tcp any object-group
SERVERS eq http

For some reason when external users connect to the outside 10.x.x.x
they are not permitted. I'm guessing this because the access-list
mentions the INSIDE names - not the OUTSIDE NAT addresses. I suppose
my question is what order is the traffic processed? NAT or access-
list?

Should my network group really contain the OUTSIDE NAT addresses of
the servers?

Many thanks,

Paul

The access-group is processed before the NAT , so yes your network group
should contain the translated addresses.
