AT&T Installing Meraki MX85 for their routers and causing Client AnyConnect connection for users

I updated my AT&T circuit to allow our company to adjust bandwidth when our company needed.   Our company installed the new ASEoD circuit.  With the new circuit installed with the new AT&T Meraki MX85 our users are now unable to VPN into our Meraki MX 84 security appliance that sits behind the AT&T MX 85 device.   

 

AT&T support has not been helpful in trying different configurations to allow connection through the AT&T MX 85 security appliance to our Meraki MX 84 security appliance that has all our Anyconnect Client VPN configuration on.   

 

Would any one have suggestions on what kind of configuration I would need to perform on the AT&T Meraki MX 85 security appliance to allow some kind of passthrough to allow our VPN users connect to our Meraki MX 84 appliance were our VPN Client configuration sits on.

Is this link behind CGNAT?

Please, if this post was useful, leave your kudos and mark it as solved.

Ciena device is connected to the AT&T Meraki MX85 security appliance, then connected to our Meraki MX84 security appliance were all our VPN Anyconnect client configuration is on.

I suggest you to check with ATT&T if it's  behind CGNAT.

Alemabrahae...

Would there be any kind of configuration that you might recommend that might need to be performed on the AT&T Meraki MX85 device that sits in front of our Meraki MX84??

 

We still have the old AT&T circuit up and running and if I plug that circuit in, all our AnyConnect VPN users connect just fine.   But that has a Cisco Router and connected directly to our Meraki MX84 security appliance.

You need AT&T to NAT tcp/443 and UDP/443 through to the IP address on the outside of your MX84 (assuming that it now has a private IP address on its WAN interface).

Im currently looking at the port forwarding rules on the AT&T Meraki MX85 device. 

 

Confirmed there is no port forwarding rules.   Just confirming the config...

 

"Add a port forwarding Rule"

Description - Port 443

Uplink - Internet 1

Protocol - TCP/UDP

Public Port - 443

LAN IP - ????

Local Port - 443

Allow remote IP's - ????

 

Just confirming what would be the LAN IP - Would that be my internal Default on my internal Meraki MX?

 

Allow remote IP's would that be set to "Any"??

 

The LAN IP would be the IP address on the Internet interface of your MX.  Remote IPs should be "any".

 

If you have access to the AT&T MX85, and you have an MX84 .... could you just decommission your MX84?
