RE: [VPN] VPN on Cisco PIX

["shannong" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>]

The [sysopt connection permit-pptp] affects what things the VPDN client
can access after a successful session is established, which means
everything.  With out that sysopt command, you would need to define what
things an VPN client can access with ACLs as the usual rule of deny all
would be in effect when accessing higher security interfaces.

That sysopt command does not affect what addresses can connect to the
Pix for PPTP sessions.  Also, ACLs applied to a Pix's interface do not
affect traffic destined to the Pix itself, such as establishing a PPTP
session. That's why you use the commands icmp, telnet, ssh, etc to
affect who/what can talk to the Pix because normal ACLs on interfaces to
don't stop/allow that traffic destined to the Pix.

Filtering the source address of those terminating VPN tunnels seemed to
be the question asked.  If that is the question, it cannot be done on
the Pix itself.  An ACL would need to be created on a device in front of
the Pix to limit who could connect to GRE/1723.

Actually, you can, but you have to remove the "sysopt connection
permit-pptp" 
command that is usually used.  In this case, you have to permit all the
incoming 
traffic to the PIX with an access-list (or conduit, I suppose),
including the 
PPTP traffic (GRE and TCP/1723).  Since you're using an access-list to
allow 
that traffic, you can also restrict the source, which is what you want.
