site to site PIX VPN

hello,

I am trying to establish a site to site vpn between two pix firewalls.

they are both reporting just error packets. how can i view the errors?

Sorry I have no help for this.. But if anyone could elaborate on this a bit more in there answer I would be forever greatfull.

I'll be doing this in the next few weeks (first time) and any help/guidance would be very very welcome.

it actually boiled down to a static route. the error packets were being generated by my failed ping requests.

I was able to ping the router but not anything else. the main office needed a static route added to the router to point all 192.168.2.0/24 traffic to the PIX firewall. once it was added all the machines at the remote location were able to ping and communicate with the main office and vise versa. the error packets stopped.

If i'm not being to pushy.. how did you find it out? How would i know when i'm doing the same thing in a few weeks?

Anything?

just by troubleshooting really. I logged into the PDM interface and saw that connection was established which meant it was working. it just couldn't send/receive data. from there i realized that i needed some static routes so the traffice knew where to go.

Did you write any access list for your VPN tunnel?
And The VPN needs trigger to start, in general.
