Local and Remote IP Address Conflict Resolution
Normally, you do not configure your local VPN policy rule’s IP addresses to overlap with the
remote VPN policy rule’s IP addresses (see Virtual Address Mapping on page 251). For
example, you usually would not configure both with 192.168.1.0. However, overlapping local
and remote network IP addresses can occur with dynamic VPN rules or IP alias.
Dynamic VPN Rule
Local and remote network IP addresses can overlap when you configure a dynamic VPN rule
for a remote site (see Figure 138). For example, when you configure LAN-Cell X, you
configure the local network as 192.168.1.0/24 and the remote network as any (0.0.0.0). The
“any” includes all possible IP addresses. It will forward traffic from network A to network B
even if both the sender (for example 192.168.1.8) and the receiver (for example 192.168.1.9)
are in network A. Note that the remote access can still use the VPN tunnel to access computers
on LAN-Cell X’s network.
