Hello,

I am trying to allow traceroutes, from a management station in my internal
network, through Checkpoint's Firewall-1, out to the Internet. My network
set up is as follows: (btw: the FW-1 is 3.0 VPN)

Internal Network ------ FW-1 ------- Router -------- Internet.

Note also that there is a static NAT translation between the internal and
external networks. In terms of policies, I did the following:

NAT:
- Everything from the management station inside, going outside is translated
into a valid IP.
- Everything from outside, going to the translated valid IP, is translated
back to the real mngmt station internal IP.

Policy:
- All traffic coming from or going to the management station is allowed
through the firewall.


But even with these open policies I wasn't able to traceroute from the
mngmnt station... The traceroute gets "blind" as soon as it reaches the
firewall. The curious thing is that I was able to traceroute from outside to
the inside mngmnt station!

By the way, my router - as far as I know - is not blocking anything. I also
tried to change FW-1's ICMP processing options from first, to before last.

Has anybody successfully allowed traceroute through FW-1? Any ideas and/or
adivice on this problem?

Thanks in advance,
F�bio Rocha.
