  • 1.  Interzone SSH to Cisco device times out

    Posted 01-21-2010 08:47

    Hello, I have an SSG550 with multiple zones. Basically here is the problem, I have my admin workstation in zone A and my Cisco switches (and users) in zone B. When I try to SSH (or telnet) to my Cisco switches I am successful and I see the traffic accepted in the firewall (via NSM) logs. I am able to login, but after about 10 seconds my connection is broken.

     

    When I ran Wireshark it shows me that the device stops responding to my workstation and I begin retransmissions.

     

    If I use SSH (or telnet) from a PC on the same subnet as the switch it work fine.

     

    I thought it might have something to do with Security Screening options (like SYN flood protection) that I recently enabled, but even when I disable it, it still happens.

     

    The policy rule for Zone A to Zone B is Any Any Permit.

     

    Any thoughts?

    Hi,


    Just for testing, have you tried telnet instead and see if you have the same problem?  What firmware version are you running on the Juniper device?


    Also, I assume the default gateway on your network is the SSG for all VLANs?

    Hi,

    Make sure no asymetrical routing is happening.

     

    Apply command no ip proxy-arp and make sure your machines gateway and cisco gateway is pointing to firewall i.e. is on firewall.

     

    Thanks
