John, Max, Stephen,

Thanks for your advice. We have "ip mtu 1404" on all interfaces, but I suspect that is not sufficient. I will look into "ip tcp adjust-mss 1360" to understand what it does (besides specifying a lower MTU) that "ip mtu" does not, and try it out.

Also, mturoute looks like a promising tool to try out. It helps to know that both of you suspect MTU issues.

Stephen, I will study your link as well.

Thanks guys for the help.

Adam

Hi,

Having a weird issue where NAT on a Cisco 1841 (IP Base 12.4(22)T) prevents
traffic from flowing through multiple models of Sonicwalls.

On the 1841:  ip nat inside source list 102 interface Dialer1 overload

The NAT works. Clients on the LAN can get to anything out on the Internet.
But when they try to get to hosts out on the Internet that are behind
Sonicwalls, the traffic fails. The weird thing is, you can telnet from LAN
clients to servers behind the Sonicwalls, on various ports (25, 80, 143,
443, 993) but when attempting to access the Sonicwall hosts using a web
browser, the connection fails. This is from multiple LAN clients (PCs and
mobile devices).

Anyone seen this behavior before?

We have set MTU to 1404 on all interfaces of the 1841 ... does not help.

When we do NAT on an ASA 5500 instead, no problem, clients can connect to
servers behind the Sonicwalls fine.

Is there some feature I should enable on the 1841? Stumped ...

Thanks,
Adam
