Only do it from 10.10.12.30. It won't work from any other IP. Perhaps you wanted to use a different source specification, like "-s 10.10.12.0/24" or "-s 10.0.0.0/8"? > i repeat the same test from firewall, it does ok. > > IP_LAN -------(ping)--------> IP www.cisco.com = Not OK > Firewall -------(ping)--------> IP www.cisco.com = OK DNS might also be a factor. Only the firewall machine and 10.10.12.30 would be able to get out to any external resolvers with that rule. -- mail to this address is discarded unless "/dev/rob0" or "not-spam" is in Subject: header
