Kings,

Thats what I thought too, but the output from the ASA shows that the
opposite. Notice that the traceroute from the Switch, shows the IP Address
of the interface facing away from the switch (i.e. facing Router R1), and
the reverse traceroute from Router R1 shows the IP Address of the interface
facing away from Router R1.

BTW - there's a type on the topology. The IP Address of the ASA inside
interface should be 10.100.2.10 not 10.100.2.20 as I typed out in the
original email.
