which firewall product?

[jpack at sevone.com (Jason Pack)]

I'm pretty sure you can do this with any modern firewall... An ASA5505 is
always a good bet.

You'd just have to route the IPIP packets to a hairpin interface on the
firewall, then create a policy that handles packets coming inbound from the
hairpin.  Policies for handling traffic with that as the source interface
would be able to filter based on layer-3 info as normal.


The trick is, as mentioned, to route the de-encapsulated traffic back into
the firewall.  A quick googling shows a related example of this for the ASA
here: http://nat0.net/cisco-asa-hairpinning/
