IPSec Pass Through Inspection
be used during the session. IPSec can be used to protect data flows between a pair of hosts (for example,
computer users or servers), between a pair of security gateways (such as routers or firewalls), or between
a security gateway and a host.
IPSec Pass Through application inspection provides convenient traversal of ESP (IP protocol 50) and
AH (IP protocol 51) traffic associated with an IKE UDP port 500 connection. It avoids lengthy access
list configuration to permit ESP and AH traffic and also provides security using timeout and max
connections.
Specify IPSec Pass Through inspection parameters to identify a specific map to use for defining the
parameters for the inspection. Configure a policy map for Specify IPSec Pass Through inspection to
access the parameters configuration, which lets you specify the restrictions for ESP or AH traffic. You
can set the per client max connections and the idle timeout in parameters configuration.
NAT and non-NAT traffic is permitted. However, PAT is not supported.
