If you have 2 vpn routers with 3 connections each (fibre, t1, dsl) and define a vpn connection between them using the fibre connection will any of the vpn packets be transmitted over the t1 or dsl lines? Doesn’t make any sense that they would but have network engineer insisting that would be the case.

Routing between VPN networks

Hi,

At work we have two private networks in different cities. The first network is 10.10.0.0/16 (A) and the other is 10.20.0.0/16 (B). They are connected with VPN using two cisco PIX. The VPN works as expected. Computers at network A can access those at network B and vice versa.
The PIX located at network A has other VPN connections to several clients (the same PIX is used for VPN between networks A and B) with similar addressing scheme 10.x.0.0/16.
The question is how can these VPN networks be accessed directly from network B?
The same problem arises when someone wants to connect to the network A from the outside using the cisco vpn client. How can this user access directly the network B (and the other client VPN networks) without first connecting (through ssh) to a server on network A?
Networks A and B are consisted of mainly linux and other unix servers with some windows PCs.
