But A can ping all interfaces of router B. Possible causes (list not limitative): - NAT problem on B either on the way out or back in. - Filter somewhere that blocks the NAT outside address range in combo with ICMP echo requests or replies. > And yes, I have tried using IP addresses, without DNS names.
