RE: [FW1] ICMP Transit Error



Sounds to me like a routing problem.
Can you draw us a network diagram and show us how
your routing is set up?

>From your description, I can't quite make out how your network
is configured. Is the following correct?



|External networks|         |Internet|
       |                        |
       |                        | 
| Extranet FW | --  DMZ -- | Internet FW |
       |                        |
       |                        |
       | -- |Internal Netw.| -- |


If you do not have NAT configured on the Extranet FW,
problem #1 must be because traffic from the internal network 
to the DMZ, is routed through the Internet FW.
I would change routing to make the Extranet FW the default gateway
for the internal network OR change the NAT rules on the Internet FW
so that traffic to the DMZ is not NATed.

Problem #2? Another routing problem, it seems. Have you tried a traceroute
to see if there is a routing loop somewhere?

Cheers,
Anders :)

Subject: [FW1] ICMP Transit Error


        Hello All: 
        I have an Extranet CheckPoint Firewall-1 that connects to a Cisco
AS5300 pointing to external networks.  On the CheckPoint Firewall-1 server,
there are three interfaces: hme0 (connected to internal networks), hme1
(connected to the DMZ zone), and hme2 (pointing to the AS5300 which connects
to external networks).  There is no NAT running.  Here are the problems that
I encounter:
1.  When I telnet to the DMZ workstation coming off from the hme1 interface
of the Firewall-1 server, I am able to login in.  However, my internal
address is being NAT to a valid public routable IP address which has been
set up on the Internet Firewall-1 that I currently have.
2.  When I am in the DMZ workstation and try to ping a host on the other
side of the external interface of the Firewall-1, I get the error message:
        ICMP Time exceeded in transit from <DMZ Interface IP Address on the
CheckPoint Firewall Server> 
        for icmp from SJ-TAC01 <DMZ Workstation IP Address> to daem01
<External Host IP Address> 
I have tried to change a few things but I have not been able to fix the
problems.  I would appreciate any comments that will be provided.
Thanks, 
Thuan Pham
