The caveat is that the pix is unable to terminate ipsec and have pass
through ipsec at the same time when you are using the pix external
interface address (pat).
The remote site should be able to configure udp 4500 (if they have a
pix) or tcp 10000 (if they have a vpn concentrator, this port can also
be changed) encapsulation of the payload. On the remote pix, this is
done with:
isakmp nat-traversal
You also need to enable "transparent tunneling" under the "transport"
for the connection definition in the vpn client, otherwise, the payload
will be sent using protocol 50 as per normal.
Note - it appears that if you have more than 1 cisco vpn client passing
through your pix that is terminating on the same endpoint, the pix
increments the udp encapsulation port
Hope this helps.
Darren
